Ousmane Dembélé

[Andresito]

He must've spoken to Mbappe and found a lot of money can be gained.

If Dembele is demanding 20-40m or whatever, imagine Mbappe.

 

[MTL_Barca]

I wasn't against keeping him but if these demands are even remotely true just fuck off, not even worth to try for more negotiations at that point.

Worst part is there probably will be a club that takes the gamble on him and offers a huge salary. 5 years of injuries and mediocre performances rewarded with another fat contract and signing bonus.

Two things regarding salaries:
1-Every player in big clubs earn a base salary and bonus one, from Messi till the Barca B kids, those raw numbers never tell the full story.
2-Contracts and salaries are private and legally protected documents that media won't get its hand on it easily, for anyone to expect any site or source to have full list of salaries we have is basically wishful thinking.

All in all, those arguments are basically hypothetical, some sources with estimation of some salaries that we have no idea what is the details of it

 

[Birdy]

If he does NOT renew on club's proposed contract
AND he does NOT secure a transfer away NOW in January

THEN, he should sit at the stands for his last 6 months, precisely like Moriba.

There are no 2 ways about it.
Laporta and the club should have a uniform stance here

I noticed that trend with the French guys, quite a handful of them earn massively so it's normal for others to also aim high. I bet Coman's next salary would be massive

It depends, if we're still struggling in the league then we'd have to include him in the squad. Wouldn't make sense to lose him for free and also give him a six month paid vacation before he leaves

NO
Club should show some character here.
Should be the same for every player.

Dembele doesn't look like someone that would be bothered, would probably sign his next free contract with another club and be chilling with Umtiti. Someone like Griezmann or Pjanic might care.

 

[JamDav1982]

Talk in media about how Dembele is better than Mbappe while telling him club is broke and needs to take a pay cut.

Next day hint at wanting to sign Haaland and then spend 55m on Torres.

Club contradicted themselves every step of way and then act miffed when doesnt agree to stay.

Handled badly and Dembele/agent has ran rings round them.

 

[Barcaman]

Someone who all these years barely played for the club while collecting wages and was paid 100 million should be a bit more humble and intent of repaying the trust.

Ran rings around them?

Only if he gets what he wants 40m yearly which isnt happening so he accomplished nothing.

Possibly,
but there is also the possibility of not playing for France NT and missing his place for the WC
OR
the possibility of suitors lowering their offers for him.

It's inactivity that turns players into non-players
He has things to lose.

Nah it doesnt take 40m a season for him to 'accomplish anything'.

The idea with Moriba was to force him to agree for sale.
With Dembele, i am not even sure we want to sell him.
There were old rumours that if he is sold, we are obligated to give BVB all of the remaining add-ons.

 

[iniestaGOAT]

It does to 'run rings around the club'
