At this point him leaving just looks like a lose-lose scenario. Too bad things needlessly escalated like that in winter, will make it difficult to find a solution now in this short amount of time. If he doesn't already have a contract elsewhere of course.

PSG would probably just end his hype for good, don't really see them have much success in the CL if they couldn't even do it with Mbappe and U30 version of Neymar.

There is a flop or good transfer for PSG. dembele wont deliver the UCL, he will just end up being irrelevant after leaving.

it's a good transfer for PSG, it's better having someone than having none plus he's free and can be quality sometimes. They'll also need two other quality forwards to be set

It's a good transfer but they will only be winning the league anyway with him or with out him. It does not matter. He will end up being irrelevant to the outside world.

True, but Dembouz doesn't strike me as someone that cares that much about records, could see it in the last game when Xavi didn't sub him earlier, any other top attacker would've been trying to get his mark in the game by trying to score a goal, making goal scoring runs or running at the defender cause that Madrid game was really ours for the killing but he was so nonchalant. So, I don't think he cares about being irrelevant to the outside world.

is it? are we sure he is starter material every week? and there is still the potential big injury just around the corner.

don't think he would want to ride the bench either.

He might just get a new contract with us.
PSG is a step down for him, we just smashed a team that they couldn't keep a 2-0 lead on. Also our whole squad is younger, closer to his age, way more exciting, better weather.
City don't need him, Liverpool wouldn't give him Salah type of wages.
Can't see him in United shirt.
Onlly Chelsea makes sense but they have a transfer ban.

Think he is gone and contract signed elsewhere as not doing that with his injury record would be a huge risk for him to have taken.

As much as like Raphinha Barca also need a touchline winger who can run at opposition and get ball in as an option.

Yeremy Pino extended not long ago but to get him as another top young player could be more what needs if Dembele goes.

Barca would have a ridiculous bunch of young players.

That would be if Haaland doesnt arrive as looks the case and would go with Auba and Fati as CF options.

Sad as it is happiest Dembele has looked on and off the pitch but surely he is gone.

I mean we will lose a player that currently contributes a fair bit to our attack for free, that always sucks. Would still definitely take him over Adama and probably the realistic alternatives as well.

At the end of the day it's really just about money and his agent, otherwise we know Xavi would like to keep him.

If we take a punt on a Spanish young RW, would prefer Nico Williams tbh.
Probably less polished than Pino, but provides this electrifying speed and dribbling, end product is shit but Pino isn't that good at it either although more polished.

Nope, won't take him over others cause he has never proven he can stay injury free.

No chance.

Williams is barely a winger and nothing special.

Pino is already better and 19.

Fabio Blanco is a touchline winger but despite his hype I'm not seeing the greatness so far. 2 goals this weekend though.

We have been interested in Alberto Moleiro previously too whose contract is up in 2023.

Both don't seem to the level of Pino admittedly (well more about Fabio than Moleiro tbh as I haven't seen fullgames of his).

Lastly have you seen Luis Sinisterra? He plays on the left but looks like he can work on the right side.

Just throwing out names outside of the usual suspects (Antony, Raphinha, Salah).

I think he has a tremendous chance under Xavi to truly justify his transfer fee and make a great career for himself at Barca. At this point, he would make a huge mistake leaving for someone like PSG.

The manager fully trusts him and the difference in his performances has been night and day.
