FC Barcelona News: 5 July 2018; Deschamps critical of Dembele, delay in Lenglet deal

France boss Didier Deschamps was not too happy with the way Ousmane Dembele left Borussia Dortmund for Barcelona. He said: “It was unacceptable behaviour. Dembele’s attitude caused problems at Dortmund, for his team-mates and in the national team.I could not call up Dembele for the France squad because he was not training. It’s an attitude we can’t tolerate one of our players having.”

Barcelona may have to wait until next week to sign Clement Lenglet from Sevilla. The Andalusian team have refused to negotiate and he will only leave if Barcelona activate his buyout clause.
