The departure of Ousmane Dembélé was obviously not digested by everyone in Catalonia. While he left for Paris for 50 million euros, the French winger particularly annoyed Enric Masip, advisor to Joan Laporta, who did not hesitate to tackle him in an interview granted to Sport.
“I like good players but I prefer loyal players. If a player has both, that’s ideal. Dembélé had already shown his lack of loyalty by refusing to extend his contract.
