Ousmane Dembele is back making headlines after scoring and picking up two assists during Sunday’s 4-0 Barcelona win over Athletic.
The Frenchman’s performance has once again prompted speculation over his future with Diario Sport reporting Barca could offer him a new two-year deal.
The report reckons the club are “contemplating offering him a short-term contract” and give the reason for the move as “so that his camp feel more comfortable.”
It’s not quite as simple as all that though.
Barca will also “demand that the player’s agent takes a step forward before talks restart by removing his demands for a big signing on fee” and it’s unclear how that will go down with Dembele’s agent Moussa Sissoko.
