the Italian journalist Roman Fabrizio, transfer expert, detailed the Frenchman’s current situation: Barcelona have made the final offer and now the decision will depend on the player. Will he favor his good time or will the millionaire bids be stronger?
Why should Dembele stay at Barcelona?
By the end of 2021, relations between the club and the player had soured. After Dembele did not accept the renewal in December, he did not want to leave the European winter market and rejected the letter of freedom offered by the club. But everything changed. The key factor was the case of Xavi, who always believed in the player and his potential.
Barcelona don’t have money, but they have the advantage of the present. The player feels comfortable in Catalonia, where he ends the season in an excellent way and feels part of the project that the club wants to build for the 2022-2023 season.
