Barcelona latest: The curious case of Ousmane Dembele and the stars who could be set for Premier League transfers
There is little doubt over the name most spoken in Barcelona during the international break.Since La Liga took a pause, Ousmane Dembl has graced the cover of Mundo Deportivo twice, and rival paper Sport the same number of times. Unfortunately for the forward, it wasnt for a good reason.Though at 21 he is still very much a work in progress, the 135m price tag, a billing as Neymar’s replacement and missing most of last year through injury, have combined to make this season one of immense importance for the France internationals career in the Catalan capital unfair though that pressure may be.Unfortunately, after a bright start which brought five goals in all competitions by mid September, the youngster has since been more noteworthy for his absence from starting line-ups, and eventually, from the match day squad altogether.Ousmane Dembele’s Barcelona career has not gone to plan4
Ousmane Dembele’s Barcelona career has not gone to plan
First, talk of poor timekeeping and a lack of discipline away from the pitch that had occasionally appeared last year started to rear its head again. Then, Ivan Rakitic criticised the time it took for his team-mate to get stripped and ready to replace Lionel Messi when he went off injured against Sevilla. Late is bad, but a few weeks later the winger didnt turn up for duty at all – Dembl posted absent without leave from Bara training. The Frenchman left the club scrambling to locate him, only to eventually present a sick-note an hour and a half after it was due. A late-night gaming session the night before hadnt helped, according to the Barcelona press.The veterans in Barcelonas squad have now taken to giving Dembl advice in public. We have to help him see that football is 24 hours. You have to live it from the first minute to the last, Gerard Piqu recommended. As some of his team-mates have said and Ousmane himself knows its a privilege to be where we are. Sometimes you have to focus more and be more responsible with some things, Luis Surez added.Dembele’s didn’t even make the Barca squad against Real Betis in Novembe4

The senior players are trying to help steer the apprentice in the right direction, but frustration from influential figures like Rakitic, Surez and Piqu is not a good sign. Their patience is running thin, as Baras will be, too.The unlikelihood of gaining a decent return on their record investment by selling from a position of weakness means a winter exit isnt probable, whether clubs like Arsenal and Liverpool remain interested or not. If things continue on their tricky trajectory, however, the Blaugrana will surely decide to cut their losses and move the World Cup winner on in the summer. Someone who is likely to move on from the Camp Nou in the winter by contrast is Denis Surez, who has only made one appearance for Barcelona this season, and is not part of coach Ernesto Valverdes plans. With a year at Bara B followed by two and a half seasons with the first team under his belt, the midfielder has been given a more than fair crack at establishing himself at the Liga side, and it just evidently isnt meant to be.Denis Suarez is another who could exit the Nou Camp4

Surez has talent, but at 24 the Galician cant afford to waste any more time without regular football, and a mooted return to England with the Gunners in January would be a worthwhile move for the former Manchester City youth player.Fellow midfielder Rafinha Alcantara has had a more active few months, making seven appearances for Bara, including a starting spot deputising for an absent Messi in El Clsico, but dad Mazinho has already started sounding out a winter exit for the 25-year-old academy product regardless, emphasising that playing one game then sitting on the bench is not enough for his son at this stage.We have to look for a way out because its very complicated here. We wont rule out a winter exit. If there are clubs interested, Barcelona are interested in a sale, and the player is happy, well work together, the 1994 World Cup winner told Marca on Tuesday.Rafinha’s father has made it clear his son wants out of Barca4

Talk of interest in the Premier League is as likely to be legitimate as it is a product of work from his representatives to create some market momentum, but real suitors will surely come for a more than useful player.A versatile footballer capable of playing in the forward line as well as the midfield, the Brazil international has sufficiently shown that he can cut it in Serie A as well as La Liga, and will have cause for optimism about his prospects away from Bara.

The question ahead of the Tottenham game, therefore, was whether he would feature at all.
