The Barcelona club wanted to content to Ronald Koeman rounding the staff with the signings of Eric García (Manchester City) and Memphis Depay (Olympique of Lyon), but for this needed to lighten before the mass salarial not to break the rule of the FIFA.

In this sense, from the FC Barcelona -so much directive like technical body- had very clear that Ousmane Dembélé had to be the big sacrificed to be able to tackle the arrivals. The reasons were very clear: Ronald Koeman considered him the piece more prescindible of his attack and the managerial board considered that it could rid of an important wage ridding, besides, of one of the highest index cards.

In this context, appeared the Manchester United to interest by the signing of Ousmane Dembélé, in concrete to carry it yielded with an option of purchase to final of season. Finally, it went the own French extreme the one who braked the operation since it did not accept the conditions that imposed the FC Barcelona: prolong his agreement a year more, to lengthen it until 2023, since the current expires in less than two seasons.

In little more than two months, the market of signings will go back to open and for then, according to the informations published by the newspaper 'Sport' this same Saturday, the aim of the club will keep on being 'plant' to the French to facilitate the arrivals of Memphis Depay and Eric García​.

Besides, said media ensures that, in little time, the FC Barcelona will program a meeting with his representative to establish the intentions of future. So much if Ousmane Dembélé finish leaving yielded in January as if it remains , the culés pretend to renew to the player and, if it does not access, will plant him in the market next summer.

New delays in the trainings could have the fault that the Dutch trainer have taken it with the player. It expects that, during the next weeks, can have minutes to show the a lot of that has for offering.
