Moussa Sissoko, the man who manages the interests of Ousmane Dembélé, is known to be tough in business. Barça is well placed to see it now.

A priori, Ousmane Dembélé should soon become a Paris Saint-Germain player. Following FC Barcelona’s victory in the warm-up match against AC Milan (1-0), Xavi, the Catalan coach, even confirmed the departure of the French international to the capital club.

However, this transfer could take longer than expected to materialize. According to the Catalan press, Barca and the player’s agent are now in conflict over how the transfer fee is going to be split. Initially, the Spanish club was to recover 50% of it, while the sulphurous Moussa Sissoko was to pocket the remaining half. The month of July being over, the Blaugrana consider that this method of distribution is now obsolete, if we are to believe the information of the Mundo Deportivo.

Although Ousmane Dembélé’s arrival at PSG should be finalized in the coming days, it could be delayed due to this imbroglio. Moussa Sissoko does not intend to let go. According to Matteo Moretto of ReportFC Barcelona should pocket 27 million euros thanks to this operation.
