Ousmane Dembele will be the protagonist of the last day of the market in a Barça key. Aware that if he stays in the Barça perhaps he will not play again and at the risk of staying six months in the stands, his agent reactivated the output operation. late afternoon in France revealed their contacts with the PSG and MD was able to confirm the conversations between the Parisian club and the azulgrana in search of an express agreement, which should arrive before midnight on Monday.
For Barça it is key to find an exit for Dembele to be able to close the arrival of Aubameyang and given the difficulty that PSG now pays a transfer for the Frenchman, six months after the contract ends, the name of some other footballer could appear in the negotiations between the two clubs, such as that of Juan Bernat, left side that barely has a leading role under the orders of Pochettino. There was also speculation yesterday with the names of Draxler or even of Mauro Icardi. Of exit, the Barça requested 20 million by Dembele, as announced by the journalist Gerald Romero on his Twitch channel, although it is an amount that can be converted into an exchange for a footballer. In the first talks between clubs, the players offered by PSG did not convince the Barça leaders.
The problem is that the talks have started this Sunday and there is hardly any time, since the transfer market closes tonight. Negotiations with PSG are always complicated, although in this case all parties would win. Barça, because it saves the record of Dembele and can incorporate Aubameyang, the player because he will have the continuity he wanted to be able to reach the World Cup and the French club because the signing of the footballer is assured and they anticipate the Premier clubs that wanted him in the summer.
In any case, these are incipient negotiations, which started this Sunday and should be speeded up expressly in the next few hours. A complicated operation, but in the offices of Barça no scenario is ruled out and they trust in being able to reach an agreement on Monday that can certify the departure of Dembele, the arrival of Aubameyang and even some other reinforcement depending on how the negotiations with PSG develop.
