It's yet unknown whether Ousmane Dembele will end up staying at Barcelona beyond 2022.
Let's list all the things we know about his complicated contract issue.
What does Laporta say about Dembele?
On Friday, the president said the following.
"We have a good relationship with Ousmane, he wants to stay. We are in talks with his agent."
Why is there still no news about his extension?
Seems like his agent is the biggest stumbling block in this whole saga.
Ever-reliable Matteo Moretto reports that there is no agreement with the player's representative and the possibility of Dembele leaving for free in 2022 is actually real.
What clubs could be interested in Dembele?
All these clubs are said to be considering an option of landing Dembele for €0 next summer.
When is he going to play again?
Joan Laporta said Dembele would be available this week already.
The truth is that the Frenchman didn't feature in Cornella friendly on Wednesday as his recovery seems to have stalled a bit.
Will he get much game time once he's back?
On the one hand, Ronald Koeman says he badly needs the injured attackers to recover as soon as possible.
On the other hand, rumour has it Dembele won't be able to feature for Blaugrana until his contract issue is resolved – something Barca have recently done with Ilaix Moriba.
❓ What should Barca do with Dembele?
