Because his contract expires in the summer of 2022, Dembele’s stay with Barcelona is unlikely to be certain. The Catalans are running out of time.
FC Barcelona apparently fears that Ousmane Dembele will not extend his contract, which is due to expire at the end of the season. The Spanish newspaper reports Sports world.
The Catalans would expect the French international to stay, but Dembele advisor Moussa Sissoko could be doomed. According to the report, he should urge his client to switch.
As Dembele’s contract expires in the summer of 2022, he will be able to officially negotiate a contract for the coming season with other clubs from January 1, without Barca approval. The Frenchman could also sign.
The Catalans are running out of time. The Barca leadership have doubts whether Dembele will be held if he doesn’t decide to stay before the turn of the year. One is not even sure whether talks about a contract extension can take place at all.
Ousmane Dembele: Extension is “a priority”
New coach Xavi tried a charm offensive recently: Dembele has the potential to become the “best player in the world in his position”, the coach announced. Xavi called extra time with the winger “one of our priorities”.
Dembele has been struggling with injuries since joining Barca. Most recently he was out with a thigh injury, so far this season he has only made one brief appearance in the league and in the Champions League.
Lately there had been a lot of rumors about Dembele due to the contract situation. In the past, transfers by the Frenchman, who cost Barca 135 million euros when signing Borussia Dortmund in the summer of 2018, have failed several times.
