Few more hectic winters in the world of football than that of Ousmane Dembele, who was a foot and a half away from Barcelona and now seems redirected to the Blaugrana cause. At the moment, until the end of the season, although it seems that the commitment could be extended.
Laporta’s idea on Ousmane Dembele
This was recognized by Joan Laporta at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona with the yellow microphones of Experts. “Dembele knows our proposal and that we have always wanted him to stay, we hope that at the end of the season he will rethink it,” said the Blaugrana president. Everything, after a remarkable performance by Dembele coming off the bench against Athletic. The Frenchman took advantage of the opportunity that Xavi gave him and shone with a notable goal and two assists. His improvement did not go unnoticed by anyone, not even by Kiko Narvaez, formerly of Atletico de Madrid and international for Spain, who highlighted in the Sanhedrin of El Larguero on Cadena SER the good work of the Barcelona coach with the winger.
Xavi will take the team to the top

He is a guy who if he gives you a good season, it is because he is different”, sentenced the scorer, valuing the good work of both, the talent of the winger and also revealing that this is only the beginning. Not called up against Alaves days after the market ended, Dembele returned to a list on February 6 in the match against Atletico although he did not come off the bench. Later, in the two away games (vs Espanyol and Valencia) Xavi prepared the ground for what was a notable return to the stadium for him.
