In open conflict with the leaders of FC Barcelona who absolutely wanted to see him leave during the winter transfer window to allow the club to lighten up a big salary, Ousmane Dembélé is no longer really in the odor of sanctity in the eyes of the Socios .

The French noticed this on Thursday evening during the Europa League meeting against Naples when he entered the game under a rain of whistles at the hour mark. A cold welcome which did not necessarily please the captain of the Gerard Pique team, calling the audience to applaud the player in the center of the field when the score was 1-1 between the two teams.
But the talented French winger quickly silenced his detractors after showing the extent of his talent on the lawn with a few solo raids of which he has the secret.
To the delight of coach Xavi, disappointed by the attitude of the public at the time of the change.
The former midfielder also wanted to support his player after the meeting:
“The public did not listen to me, they are sovereign.
But Ousmane succeeded in dribbling, he was behind an action that almost ended in goal... he has character.
And the whistles turned into applause.
I think that's the thing to remember."
