The Barça is that trina with Dembélé and Umtiti

The Barça is that trina with Ousmane Dembélé. His refusal to leave, despite having offers like Manchester United To leave on loan, he deprived the Barça club of incorporating Memphis Depay. Dembélé, castled, did not care exactly as Ronald Koeman told him that ahead of him he has Messi, Griezmann, Coutinho, Ansu, Trincao or Pedri. In addition to lack of sporting ambition (Being the seventh striker in the coach's plan has mattered very little), at Barça it is especially painful that the footballer has ignored a request from the club after having endured three years of tardiness, lack of discipline, and, especially, very serious injuries. Meanwhile, he has religiously collected his file and has had the best specialists at his service without any use. Barça asked him to have a gesture because only his departure opened the door to Depay, but Dembélé, in a decision that defines a lot his way of being, kindly declined the invitation of the club.

Bartomeu left the Ciutat Esportiva offices last night at around 0.30 am with a couple more banners about his management. He had not been able to sign Eric García or Depay because he had not been able to remove Dembélé, nor Umtiti, in what he recognizes as two of the main errors of his sports management. First, having paid 105 million euros plus 40 in variables for a crystal player who has also had immature behaviors on and off the field and who has had very little purpose of amendment. Second, have disregarded the advice of the doctors, who refused to give the green light to the renewal of the former Olympique de Lyon player due to his knee cartilage problems left, and having given him a millionaire in the 2018 contract improvement. Umtiti has returned it to Barça, among other things, erasing himself from the last month and a half of competition last season. “This year I don't play anymore,” said Tan Pancho in the locker room to the doctors. Umtiti also had a proposal to go out and 'help' the club. Ramon Planes admitted during Sergiño Dest's presentation that they were looking for the best solution for the parties but, in no case, has it been to find a way out.

It will be interesing observe what is the behavior of Ronald Koeman with the two players from now on. In principle, the two should throw a cable in the field. Umtiti, who at least is expected to reach a decent physical level, in a specific game. It is the central room and it is possible that at some point the Dutch coach will have to pull it. Dembélé, for his part, is going to have a very difficult time. Any player up front, even subsidiary Konrad, is ahead today. Barça will try to place them again in January, although then nobody knows who will be at the wheel of the club because there could be a new president and new sports managers, and the scenario could change.
