While a departure from Dembélé – this winter or this summer – is inevitable, the Catalan leaders are working on his replacement.
It’s over. We reveal it to you in various articles exclusively on Foot Transfer market, and the Catalan press has repeatedly confirmed behind. It is no longer a question of whether Dembouz will extend or not with FC Barcelona, but whether he will leave this winter or in June at the end of his contract. Barça are in any case putting pressure on the player so that he leaves now…
And for good reason, a departure this winter would allow the Barcelonans to save payroll and be able to strengthen the team. The management of Joan Laporta would even think of terminating the player’s contract now, or else lowering his release clause to facilitate a departure. Anyway, if the player that Xavi likes so much were to pack his bags in the next two weeks, he will have to be replaced…
An inexpensive operation
The Barcelonans seem in any case to have set their sights on a player, and it is a former member of the house: Adama Traoré. It’s not the first time that the Spanish international has been in the Catalans’ sights, but this time it seems to be concrete. The media Sport explains that the first contacts have already been established, and that Jorge Mendes, close to Joan Laporta and very influential at Wolves, would considerably facilitate the operation.
The robust 25-year-old winger would be very keen to return home, especially since he is close to many players in the squad. Xavi is a big fan of the player, and the operation would not be particularly expensive, since it would be around 20 million euros, and the Catalans could even include Trincao, currently on loan with the English club, in the transaction. To be continued, even if it’s off to a good start…
