The situation between FC Barcelona and Ousmane Dembélé is clear: the player must leave the club, and the sooner the better. Annoyed by this situation, Xavi had threatened Dembouz to send him to the stands until the end of the season. Yesterday during the Copa del Rey match against Athletic Bilbao at San Mamès, the Blaugrana coach kept his word and did not call the Frenchman to his group.
After the defeat in extra time (3-2), the Spanish world champion was asked about the absence of his winger, “I don’t think it affected Dembélé’s situation. It’s not a one-sided situation, it’s a club issue and that’s it.”, he clarified, insisting that the club is above the player.
