<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-ousmane-dembele-reportedly-turns-down-chance-to-be-released-20220201-0026.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ousmane Dembele</a> had turned down several offers for a <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/messi-joins-psg-13-superstars-who-have-left-barcelona-on-bad-terms-20210811-0011.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Barcelona</a> exit this winter, which clearly indicatesthat he wanted to stay at the Camp Nou until the expiry of his contract in the summer. The French forward hadpersistently refused to renew his ongoing deal, prompting the Catalan giants to want to move him during the January transfer window.
However, the Blaugrana were <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/3-possible-scenarios-for-dembele-if-he-doesnt-renew-20220119-0028.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">unable to find a buyer</a> for Dembele before the deadline on January 31, and the player is now set to go for nothing at the end of the season. It is known that Dembele is in a serious conflict with coach <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/xavi-and-fc-barcelona-have-reached-a-decision-over-ousmane-dembele-future-20220120-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Xavi Hernandez</a>, but this player is still expected to be part of the club’s matches until the end of the season.
Barcahave reportedly given Xavi the option of benching or starting the forward, and it appears like the Spanish managerwill use the 24-year-old, even if he isn’t starting. The right-winger has appeared in 11 games for Barcelona this season, scoring one goal and assisting on two occasions.
<h2>Dembele-PSG: Secret agreement?</h2>
According to Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona actually assume thatOusmane Dembele has apossible secret deal with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/psg-roster-2021-2022-list-of-paris-saint-germain-players-this-season-20210809-0019.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Paris Saint-Germain</a> to join them as a free agent at the conclusion of the season. Dembele’s contract will expire this summer, giving him the opportunity to speak with potential suitors and perhaps sign a pre-contract deal with an outside club.
As a result, Joan Laporta, the president of the club, believes that the young ace has already signed a contract with another club, with a move to his homeland on the cards.It has been suggested that the France internationalwill gain more playing time as a result of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/psg-kylian-mbappe-reportedly-under-pressure-to-sign-new-deal-amid-real-madrid-interest-20220114-0033.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kylian Mbappe</a>‘s expected departure to Real Madrid.

Barcelona: French outcast Ousmane Dembele expected to join PSG as free agent in summer

Barcelona: French outcast Ousmane Dembele expected to join PSG as free agent in summer - Bolavip US

The months have passed but the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/3-possible-scenarios-for-dembele-if-he-doesnt-renew-20220119-0028.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ousmane Dembele</a> situation has barely changed in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/deadline-day-pierre-emerick-aubameyang-leaves-arsenal-to-join-fc-barcelona-20220131-0028.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Barcelona</a>. With his contract running out in the summer, the Cules have failed to cash in on him before <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/deadline-day-aubameyang-to-barcelona-dele-alli-van-de-beek-to-everton-and-the-best-signings-20220131-0027.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the transfer deadline</a> and the winger’s future is up in the air.
Dembele, who has <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/report-barcelona-dismissed-chance-to-sign-current-liverpool-star-for-40m-to-land-dembele-instead-20210921-0016.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">arrived at Camp Nou in 2017</a> for a mind-blowing $154 million, has stalled his contract talks with the Blaugrana and he could leave for nothing come July. The club wanted to prevent that but no deal has been struck for him before Feb. 1.
That’s why, according to Marca, the Catalans have proposed Dembele to part ways now by releasing him. However, that is apparently not how theformer Borussia Dortmund player wants to leave Barcelona.
<h2>Ousmane Dembele turns down release proposal from Barcelona, future up in the air</h2>
As a result of his refusal to be released, Dembele continues belonging to the squad. But it remains to be seen whether he’ll suit up again for the Cules. The club’s hierarchy is reportedly disgruntled with Dembele for stalling his renewal and failing to accept a move away <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-juventus-reportedly-have-agreement-in-principle-with-one-of-xavis-favorites-20211230-0022.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">that let the club cash in</a> for him.
It is believed that Barcelona will decide not to count on Dembele anymore. Unless he signs a new contract, the Frenchman would train everyday but would have no room in the matchday squad for the remainder of the season.
<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/4-reasons-why-xavi-is-willing-to-let-memphis-depay-leave-20220115-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Xavi Hernandez</a> made clear, though, how important he believes Dembele could be. But it is also true that he only wants players who are committed to the club and who can be counted on for the future.

Barcelona: Ousmane Dembele reportedly turns down chance to be released

Barcelona: Ousmane Dembele reportedly turns down chance to be released - Bolavip US

French forward <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/report-star-player-tells-xavi-he-is-leaving-barcelona-20211207-0008.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ousmane Dembele</a> has entered the last six months of his contract with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-top-goalscorers-all-time-20201115-0003.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Barcelona</a>,as he is tied to the La Liga sideuntil June 2022. The situationhas onlyincreased the tension between the club and the player’s representatives because Barca’smanagement have given up on receivingadefinite answer to theirfinal contract renewal offer.
The Spanish giant had wantedto keep the Frenchman andoffered him a new contract. In addition, it wassuggested thatthe 24-year-oldwould also opt to stay, but the main issue was his agent, Moussa Sissoko,who wasreportedlynot happy with the proposal, as he believes that his client deserves a better deal.
Meanwhile, the Barcelona hierarchy’s patience has <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/xavi-and-fc-barcelona-have-reached-a-decision-over-ousmane-dembele-future-20220120-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">officially runout</a>, and they do not want to wait any longer. As a result, coach <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/4-reasons-why-xavi-is-willing-to-let-memphis-depay-leave-20220115-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Xavi Hernandez</a>, who hasconstantly backed the player to succeed, and had earlier publicly stated that the right-winger plays an important part in the new project, gaveDembele an ultimatum in case he <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/3-players-barcelona-could-sell-next-after-philippe-coutinho-20220109-0013.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">doesn’t sign a new contract</a> until the end of January.
<h2>Imminenttransfer to the Premier League</h2>
“It’s clear that Dembele does not want to continue with Barcelona. He doesn’t want to be part of our project. We told Dembele he has to leave immediately. We expect Ousmane to be <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-xavi-and-joan-laporta-give-contradicting-statements-on-clubs-transfer-situation-20220103-0010.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">sold before January 31</a>,” said Barca’sdirector of footballMateu Alemany on Thursday. Chelsea seem to be in pole position tobring Dembele on loan until the end of the season, and sign him as a free agent in the summer so as tomeet his financial requirements. The Spanish sideareeven prepared to ship him off for a loan worth€5 million, as per The Sun.
In addition, the Blues boss Thomas Tuchel, who worked with Dembele at Borussia Dortmund, has welcomed a possible move: “I haveno idea about his situation, but he isa very good player when he is in his top-level. I was very lucky to train him in Dortmund. It was only for one year and it should have been longer. I left and he decided to leave”.The report adds that the 24-year-old has also appearedon the radar of the wealthiest club in the world at the moment, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/real-madrid-agrees-to-sell-eden-hazard-to-newcastle-for-40m-what-will-he-do-20220118-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Newcastle</a>. Meanwhile, Mirror has linked the player withanother two <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/5-soccer-players-suffer-serious-health-problems-as-result-of-covid-19-20220114-0039.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Premier League</a> sides, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/3-motives-why-arsenal-want-to-swoop-for-diego-costa-20220116-0009.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Arsenal</a>, and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/cristiano-ronaldo-could-lose-25-of-his-salary-if-man-united-continue-to-struggle-20220121-0005.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Manchester United</a>.
<h2>Mutualterminationofcontract</h2>
“The message is clear. Ousmane Dembele has to sign a new contract or we find a way to sell him in January. No other way. What I can say is that we are making a difficult decision. If he does not renew, the club has decided that they will make a decision. We have waited a long time, we have been in talks with him for five months,” said Xavi earlier on Wednesday.
It wasDiario ASwho had claimedthat the Spanish manager had beenoptimistic that the player would take the initiative and accept Barcelona’s offer.However, the situation was notallowed to continue indefinitely. As a result, the problematicforward was ruled out of the Copa del Rey clash, in which the club lost 3-2toAthletic Club.
The winter transfer window is set to close onJanuary 31. In casethe Catalans fail to sell or loan out the winger, they could meet again with his entourage to discuss amutualterminationof the contract. That way, Dembele would leave Barcelona on a <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/5-players-who-switched-real-madrid-and-barcelona-as-free-agents-20220115-0002.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">free transfer</a> this month, but they would save on his highsalary starting from February 1.
<div style="text-align:center">
<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-48"> </div>
</div>
<h2>Forced termination of contract andlawsuit</h2>
After being cut out of the team and urged to leave with immediate effect, Ousmane Dembelehas insisted on continuing contract talks with Barcelona and has demanded that he will not be intimidated: “I’m still under contract, I am fully involved and at the disposal of my club, my coach. I have always given everything formy colleagues and also for all the club members. I am not going to change that now. I am not a man who cheats and still less a man who has the habit of giving in to blackmail.”
However, Catalan publication Sport suggests that the player refusesto budge on his demands, which include a salary of €20 milliongross per season, which is €4 million more than his current earnings. In addition, he is asking for an on-signing bonus and a commissionfee for his agent, Moussa Sissoko.
If the former Borussia Dortmund talent, who has been capped 27 times so far by the France national team, doesn’t want the easy way out, he could be <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/aguero-messi-and-all-the-players-who-left-barcelona-in-2021-20211215-0003.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">forced to leave</a> through the back door. Ifhe rejects the latestcontract offer over the next several hours, Barca could also decide to rescind his current contract.However, unilateral revocation would very certainly result in a legal battle.

Barcelona: 3 possible scenarios for Dembele if he doesn't sign new contract in January

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/3-players-barcelona-could-sell-next-after-philippe-coutinho-20220109-0013.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">FC Barcelona</a> is going through a bit of a rough patch as of late. They lost Sergio Agüero due to a cardiac condition, they couldn’t keep <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-idol-begs-lionel-messi-to-return-amid-chaotic-club-situation-20220119-0018.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lionel Messi</a>, and they’re struggling to find top-tier reinforcements <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/report-liverpool-star-offered-to-barcelona-at-a-massive-discount-20220117-0008.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">on a limited budget.</a>
On top of that, French star Ousmane Dembelé has shown little-to-no cooperation in terms of extending his stay with the club. He and his camp have deliberately stalled his contract extension and it’s clear that he has no intention of staying in Camp Nou any further.
That’s why, according to Marca, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/4-reasons-why-xavi-is-willing-to-let-memphis-depay-leave-20220115-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Xavi</a> and Barca sporting director Mateu Alemany have told Dembelé’s representatives to find him a new club before the end of the month or he won’t play a single minute until the end of the season.
<h2>Report: Barcelona To Bench Ousmane Dembelé If He Doesn’t Leave By January 31</h2>
“We started talks withDembele’s agents last July. Six or seven months have passed since then, during which we have been in dialogue and during whichBarcelonahave made different offers,” Alemany told Marca.
“We have tried to find a way for the player to stay with us. Offers that have been systematically rejected by his representatives,” he added. “Now, eleven days before the end of the last period of his contract, the club understand that the player does not want to renew and that he is not committed toBarcelona’s future project.”
“He and his representatives have been informed that he has to leave the club and that he has to look for a transfer before January 31,” the sporting director concluded.

Xavi already dropped Dembelé’s for the Copa del Rey knockout stage big clash vs. Athletic Bilbao. Overall, the former Borussia Dortmund standout has one goal and a couple of assists over 11 caps this season for the Blaugrana.

It’s not an easy job to do and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-xavi-hernandez-shows-the-exit-door-to-ronald-koemans-favorite-20211224-0014.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Xavi Hernandez</a> probably won’t make it overnight, but it looks like they’re in the right direction.
Even with a terrible <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/messi-leaves-barcelona-why-is-the-club-in-financial-crisis-20210805-0027.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">financial crisis</a> haunting the club, Barca have managed to attract Ferran Torres, who decided to leave <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/the-best-players-from-the-americas-to-play-in-the-premier-league--20211227-0017.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Premier League</a> leaders <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/manchester-city-t74" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Manchester City</a> to try and help the La Liga giants get back on track.
But whilethe Cules areworking to seal more signings for next season, they are also at risk of losing a big name come July. Just like they’re trying to snatch <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/barcelona-chelsea-vet-has-reportedly-reached-agreement-to-join-xavis-squad-in-2022-20211229-0028.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a Chelsea veteran</a> who runs out of contract, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/report-juventus-matthijs-de-ligt-has-a-special-barcelona-clause-in-his-contract-20211228-0019.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Juventus</a> are reportedly getting close to secure a Barca star for nothing.
<h2>Report: Juventus reach agreement in principle with Barcelona star for summer move</h2>
According to Sport, the Old Lady are leading the race to secure the services of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/ousmane-dembele" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ousmane Dembele</a> for next season. The French winger’s contract with Barcelona is up in the summer and he’s stalling to sign a new deal.

The Spanish outlet claims, however,that while Dembele and his agent Moussa Sissoko have reached an agreement in principle with Juve, the player is also waiting for an offer from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/psg-t16721" target="_blank" rel="noopener">PSG</a>, who have supposedly shown interest as well.
Dembele has been linked with a host of European giants as his contract talks with Barcelona stalled, with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/manchester-united-roster-2021-2022-list-of-red-devils-players-this-season-20210827-0010.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Manchester United</a> and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/transfer-rumors-flamengos-gabigol-on-newcastle-uniteds-radar-in-the-winter-window-20211229-0016.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Newcastle</a> often mentioned as possible destinations for 24-year-old. The Magpies, however, wouldn’t be an attractive option for Dembele.
Whether he ultimately joins the Serie A club remains to be seen, as <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/psg-roster-2021-2022-list-of-paris-saint-germain-players-this-season-20210809-0019.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Paris Saint-Germain</a> and the Red Devils could still make an attempt to land him. But what looks for certain is that his days in Barcelona will come to an end in six months, unless there’s a shocking turn of events.

Aubameyang, who has had a fantastic start to life in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/premier-league-t45" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Premier League</a> when he moved to North London in winter of 2018, has supposedly returned later than expected from a sanctioned holiday and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/premier-league-unhappy-psg-star-reportedly-on-the-radar-of-mikel-arteta-for-arsenal-20211209-0012.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mikel Arteta</a> decided to remove the armband from him.
The former <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/borussia-dortmund-t147" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Borussia Dortmund</a> player’s future at the Emirates seems to be hanging by a thread, but he may find thedoors open at Camp Nou instead.

According to The Independent, Barcelona have switched their attention to Aubameyang amid his uncertain situation at Arsenal. But the Catalans’<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/messi-leaves-barcelona-why-is-the-club-in-financial-crisis-20210805-0027.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">financial problems</a> would prevent them from affording his transfer fee and the Gabonese is also unwilling to take a paycut.That’s why Barca would consider offering <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/ousmane-dembele" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ousmane Dembele</a> in exchange.

With the Frenchman’s contract running out next summer, the Cules are worried that Dembele <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/report-star-player-tells-xavi-he-is-leaving-barcelona-20211207-0008.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">leaves for nothing at the end of the season</a>. Xavi is reportedly keen on tying him down to a new contract but if he continues stalling, Barca won’t have other option but to try and get something in return.
His departure would mean a huge reduction to their wage bill and also allow them to afford Aubameyang’s demands. His level at Arsenal may have droppedfor the last two seasons but he still has potential to get back to his best. Besides,Xavi lacksdependable options up front, with<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/kun-aguero-announced-his-retirement-from-professional-soccer-20211215-0002.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sergio ‘Kun’ Aguero‘s retirement</a> coming as another huge blow.

Report: Barcelona and Arsenal could swap players as Xavi eyes Aubameyang - Bolavip US

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/barcelona-t11" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Barcelona</a>’s 2021/22 season has been a rollercoaster of bad, the Catalan club sits seventh in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/la-liga-t48" target="_blank" rel="noopener">LaLiga</a> and clinging to life to the second spot of their <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/bayern-vs-barcelona-why-are-fans-not-allowed-20211205-0013.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Champions League</a> group. Xavi has come in to put out the fire but after a loss over the weekend to Real Betis some momentum has died down.
Despite <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/xavi-hernandez" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Xavi</a>’s interest to take Barcelona back to their roots, the club’s dire financial situation will not permit Barcelona to spend big in the next few transfer windows. Xavi is doing the best he can to mold a squad that has its shortcomings, an example of this is having American Sergiño Dest learn soccer tactics to help his positioning on the field.
Jota Jordi on El Chiringuito reports that one of Xavi’s soldiers is not sticking around next season and that <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/report-barcelona-dismissed-chance-to-sign-current-liverpool-star-for-40m-to-land-dembele-instead-20210921-0016.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ousmane Dembélé</a> has informed the coach he is leaving in the summer.

Ousmane Dembélé may want out, but not before Barcelona will make a last-ditch attempt to keep the French star on the squad next year, considering how weak Barcelona is at forward. Dembélé has played only 2 games this season in LaLiga both coming off the bench after missing almost all of the season with a knee injury. Barcelona is reported to have offered Dembélé the same salary but inflated bonuses to make up for the salary freeze.
Dembélé who has played 83 games and only scored 18 goals in 5 seasons now can largely be summed up as a disappointment at Barcelona. Nonetheless clubs like Manchester United, Bayern Munich, Chelsea, Juventus and Tottenham have expressed interest in the French international.

But things could have been different should the club seized on theopportunity of landing Mohamed Salah for a bargain of €40 million ($46m)from<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/roma" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Roma</a>. According to Catalan outlet El Nacional, Barca were offered the Egyptian star for that summer but Josep Maria Bartomeu wasn’t interested.
Instead, Barcelona ended up splashing a mind-blowing €135 million ($148.50m) on Ousmane Dembele from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/borussia-dortmund-t147" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Borussia Dortmund</a>. Salah eventually joined <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/liverpool-t26467" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Liverpool</a> for €42m in what turned out to be one of the biggest bargains in recent years. Dembele, on the other hand, was plagued by injuries during his tenure in Barcelona and has yet to live up to expectations.
