"Barcelona" president Josep Bartomeu assured that the club definitely does not intend to sell Ousmane Dembele. Last summer, the Catalans acquired the 20-year-old talent as a replacement for Neymar, but due to injuries, he practically missed half of the season. Moreover, the Frenchman, who cost 115 million euros, did not impress with his performances in the 20 matches he played. "The possibility of selling him is not real. We will finish the season, and then there will be meetings," Bartomeu told the Catalonia radio station “RAC 1”. "He is an investment in the future. He is very young and we expect a lot from him." The leader of the Spanish champions also said that the club will not seek to bring Neymar back. "I was surprised by the way Neymar left," Bartomeu added. "I think when they told us he was leaving, he had already made up his mind long ago." "When the trial about the contract extension bonus takes place, everything will become clear." "Neymar will not return to 'Barca.' We have new projects and we are not interested in him." One of these "projects" - Dembele - stood out this season with two goals and seven assists.
