Officially, Ousmane Dembélé has ceased to be a FC Barcelona player. The French attacker did not renew his contract and his future is still up in the air, since he has not announced his plans for next season

The stage that more feared the FC Barcelona has arrived: Ousmane Dembélé has left to be linked with the Barcelona entity after five years of agreement. The club has insisted -of tireless way- with the possibility that it renewed, but the player has given a lot of long to his decision and, to day of today, anybody knows what will do in the season 2022-2023.

In this last week, with the visit of Moussa Sissoko to Barcelona, had remained the feeling that the renewal was much more near that his exit, but the born player in Vernon surprised with a new request: it wanted to see increased his wage to remain . The Catalans denied in band and left clear his position: or it remained by what were offering, or could do his cases to leave .

Now the stage complicates for both parts. The Barça, is worth it to remember, did not withdraw the offer so that Dembélé remained . If this raisin, will compute in LaLiga like a new registration and no a renewal, as it already happened with Lionel Messi the past summer. The Barcelona, in this sense, would have to fulfil the rules of the patronal and -as they are the things- generate 'fair play' financial (waiting for that generate more income by the 'crowbars').

For Dembélé, on the other hand, neither will be very simple, considering besides that already a lot of teams are beginning his pre-seasons and that will take more in adapting in the group in which it go to play, if it finishes leaving. It is conscious that the Barça does not go to improve his proposal and that, if it wants to remain, does not have more remedy that accept it although for him was insufficient.

A 'serial' that seems not having final

The FC Barcelona carries treating the subject of the renewal of Dembélé from does a few months, more than what wanted the club. The answer of the French always was the same: it needed more time to think and, when it answered, was to ask that they went up the offer. Now it will remain to see if the blaugrana leave the 'bidding' to achieve his signature.
