Spanish press reports revealed that the French international, Othman Dembele, attended Barcelona’s training, despite the expiration of his contract with the Catalan club at the end of last season, due to the failure of the two parties to reach a declared agreement regarding his continuation in the team.
According to the newspaper “Mundo Deportivo”, Ousmane Dembele was seen in group training through a video broadcast by one of his colleagues via Instagram, in which he revealed his presence next to Frank Kessie, the new Barcelona player.
Gabonese international Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang published a video clip on his social media accounts, in which Dembele appeared to change his clothes in Barcelona’s dressing room, accompanied by his compatriot Samuel Umtiti, Ivorian midfielder and newcomer Frank Kessie..
