The France international winger says he could not stand to see his dream potentially go up in dust
Ousmane Dembele has defended his decision to go on strike in a bid to force through a mega-money move from Borussia Dortmund to Barcelona.
France winger Dembele completed a €105 million switch to Barca after refusing to train during his final days with the Bundesliga club.
The 20-year-old's actions drew widespread criticism but, back in Ernesto Valverde's first-team plans and attempting to salvage an injury-plagued debut season at Camp Nou, Dembele asked critics to put themselves in his shoes.
