Barcelona club president Juan Leporta is back to persuade Barcelona’s French player Osman Dembele. Dembele, whose contract with Barcelona expires at the end of the season, is expected to leave the club. Coach Xavi and Leporta have repeatedly called for the player to renew his contract during the January transfer window, but Dembele has not complied.
However, management and coaches are still struggling to gather enough evidence against Dembele, who has been playing well for Barcelona recently. He scored one goal and one assist for Barcelona in their four-goal victory over Athletic Club in La Liga. After that, Xavi also came on the scene with a statement that Dembele would stay at the club.

“Dembele knows our offer and we always want him to stay. We hope he will reconsider his offer at the end of the season.
Laporta also praised Pedri, another young player on the team. Pedri is currently playing well for Barcelona. With the addition of Obamayong and Troy to the squad after the January transfer window, Barcelona have become a better club.
