Barely two months after a first extension until June 2024, FC Barcelona already intends to offer a new contract to winger Ousmane Dembl. The sparkling form of the Frenchman as well as his release clause, only fixed at 50 M€, push the Catalans to act very quickly.
Ousmane Dembl has had an excellent start to the season with Bara.
It seems a long time ago when FC Barcelona and striker Ousmane Dembl tore each other apart during tough negotiations for the extension of the Frenchman’s contract.
After an agreement reached last summer for a new lease until June 2024, the Blaugrana want to see even further…
A €50 million increase clause
Indeed, the Bara intends to quickly return to action to shield, again, the French international, according to information from the daily Mundo Deportivo this Friday. Unsurprisingly, the Catalan club wants to lock the former Rennais, who has returned to an excellent level in recent weeks, in the long term, at least until June 2026. By the way, the reigning Spanish vice-champion wants to avoid a bad surprise by increasing his release clause, currently fixed at 50 million euros.
And the media does not take tweezers in asserting that this is a priorities in the minds of Catalan leaders, even if no negotiations have yet been launched. Made aware of the intentions of his management, Dembl is, logically, open to discussion and would even be seduced by the idea of staying permanently in Catalonia.
Dembl’s metamorphosis
In any case, on paper, the Barcelona strategy presents an implacable logic. It must be recognized that since the arrival of coach Xavi, Dembl has radically changed his face. As much in his behavior as in his performance on the pitch, as evidenced by his 2 goals and 2 decisive assists in 6 La Liga games this season, the 2018 world champion has found the light and seems to flourish under the orders of the Spanish technician. A revival confirmed on the hard?
