Except for a major surprise, Ousmane Dembélé will not be able to help Barça in this Champions League. It was already supposed, but the return to training has only confirmed it. Dembélé did not have a good feeling in training on Tuesday. It ended with annoyances and the scenario was repeated on Wednesday, so that this Thursday the workload has decreased.
The winger, who works with Xavi Linde in recovery, is recovering from an injury to the femoral biceps of his right leg that he underwent in Finland last February by Dr. Lasse Lempeinen. Then he was already diagnosed with a six-month leave.
Dembélé has the challenge of being in Lisbon, but at the moment it is very difficult. The question is whether he will have already played his last game with Barça, since the Catalan club plans to sell him or put him in some exchange operation. That, of course, if you have any offer for a player who, beyond his debatable understanding of the game, has been a gale of injuries for three years at Barça.
