The time has come for Barcelona to offload Ousmane Dembele, says Rivaldo, with the Frenchman having no part to play even before links to Neymar and Lautaro Martinez are taken into account.
The Liga giants invested part of the record-breaking fee they brought in from the sale of Neymar to Paris Saint-Germain in 2017 in acquiring a France international winger from Borussia Dortmund.
Barca were buying into Dembele’s potential and have seen the 22-year-old become a World Cup winner while on their books. He has, however, struggled for form and fitness throughout a spell at Camp Nou and seen his attitude called into question at regular intervals.
