MADRID: Barcelona are disappointed by the situation with forward Ousmane Dembele, who might not play for the club again this season, president Joan Laporta said on Wednesday (Feb 2).
Arsenal have announced the departure of striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang as he moves to Barcelona on a free transfer. The 32-year-old Gabonese striker left the London club by mutual consent on January 31, transfer deadline day, and has agreed an 18-month deal with the Spanish club.
Arsenal and Barcelona agreed a deal to take Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to the Camp Nou on deadline day, despite a strong warning from manager Xavi Hernandez.
But Blaugrana boss Xavi Hernandez has been hit with a major dilemma as one of those new signings will not be able to play in European competition.
The future of Arsenal outcast Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has dominated the January transfer window with his future in North London still unclear.
“We have to stop this right now,” Xavi Hernández said. The day he took over as Barcelona manager Xavi had insisted that “in his right position, worked on well, Ousmane Dembélé could be the best in the world” and that extending the Frenchman’s contract was a “priority”. Sitting alongside him, a little giddy at the opening of a new era, was Joan Laporta. The Barça president, who had declared Dembélé “better than [Kylian] Mbappé” a week earlier, flashed a knowing smile. “Understood,” he said, and everybody laughed.
Adama Traore is returning to where it all began, almost literally. He was born in the hospital situated next to the old La Masia campus just a trademark dribble away from the Camp Nou. He joined the club at eight, left at 19. Now, initially on loan from Wolves, he is home.
Barcelona have signed speedy winger Adama Traore on loan from Premier League side Wolverhampton Wanderers until the end of the season, the LaLiga club announced on Saturday, returning the Spain international to the club where he started his career.
