Ousmane Dembélé left very few friends during his six-year stint at Camp Nou.
His introverted nature and his tendency to go his own way made him an asocial character who found it difficult to relate to his teammates.
Gavi, One of the Few Friends Dembélé Left at Barça
He got along with very few. Those who spoke his language and another player who managed to approach him and earn his trust.
This is Gavi, a footballer who is currently under scrutiny at Barça. The arrival of Dani Olmo has blocked his path to the starting line-up. The club has him on the market awaiting offers.
In Paris, They Are Very Attentive to Gavi's Movements
Gavi's situation hasn't gone unnoticed by Dembélé, who from Paris is closely following the events surrounding Barça. Nor by Luis Enrique and Nasser Al-Khelaifi.
Luis Enrique is a total fan of Gavi's play. He already showed it during his time as coach when Gavi was a starter in La Roja while still just a child. He wants to know if PSG could really secure his services.
For Luis Enrique, it would be a truly top-tier signing. He wants to take advantage of the credit granted to him by recent results to push for his signing.
Luis Enrique is convinced that with Gavi in the midfield, PSG would soar. He has tasked Dembélé with keeping him updated on the developments.
Only Flick Can Pardon Him
Dembélé talks to Gavi periodically. He has informed him that if Barça puts him on the market, PSG will be the first to sign him.
To prove his closeness to Gavi, Dembélé has placed a picture of himself with Gavi during his Barça days to illustrate his personal Instagram account.
As of today, nothing is decided about Gavi's future. But Dembélé, Luis Enrique, and Al-Khelaifi know that for 100M, Laporta will send him wrapped in cellophane paper.
Only Flick seems like he could pardon him, although it won't be easy given the overbooking of great players in his position.
