Laporta: “It’s an economic issue”
The Barça president Joan Laportaspoke this afternoon of the situation of Dembele’s in a tribute to Johan Cruyff held in S’Agaró. “Dembele’s He is a person that we appreciate very much, he has played at a very high level in the second round and the coach is very satisfied with him. It is an economic question, he has answered us without saying a ‘yes’ or a ‘no’. We maintain a good relationship with the player and there is communication with the agents. If he accepts the conditions that we have presented, he will continue, if not, then no. We don’t set deadlines for anything, not for signings, not for levers or anything. Now that we’ve activated the first lever, we’ve released quite a bit of pressure. We are working hard, both for players and levers.”
