In Paris, they are beginning to realize that the signing of Ousmane Dembélé has not been all the positive they thought when PSG decided to pay the 50 million euros of the winger’s release clause.
The Frenchman landed at Parc dels Prínceps as a true star and his signing was sold as the steal of the century to Barça , who could do nothing to retain the player.
3 months later, in Paris they are beginning to be fed up with the winger, who continues to be the irregular and desperate player who generated a tremendous debate in Barcelona, with as many defenders as detractors.
Such is the disenchantment with Dembélé, that in France it is already said that PSG could be considering a departure for the player for the winter market, bound for England, where he would have offers from Arsenal , Chelsea and Newcastle.
PSG would sell him for 50 million euros, the same amount of money they paid for Dembélé, although half went into the player’s pockets.
Faced with these rumours, the first to step out has been Emmanuel Petit , former French player of Arsenal, in addition to Barça, who has not hesitated to criticize Dembélé. “I wouldn’t sign him. He constantly wastes opportunities and doesn’t score goals.
He had a difficult start at PSG, so I wouldn’t be in favor of taking Dembélé to Arsenal,” Petit told Foot Mercato . Petit has emphasized the evil that has always haunted Dembélé, his lack of goals, to which he adds an almost always ill-advised decision-making.
Emmanuel Petit is not the first former player to criticize Dembélé, who has gradually lost all the credit with which he landed in France. “With him I always want more. He does some good things, but he gets confused, he wants to do it so well that he overdoes it. His performances are not good because he is overexcited ,” the former player said a few weeks ago from PSG Jérome Rothen , who now works as an analyst at RMC.
And it’s that Dembélé, being one of PSG’s strikers, continues without scoring his first goal with the team, with which he has accumulated 13 games, 10 in Ligue 1 and 3 in the Champions League. He has only been a substitute in 3 of those, so he needs to start scoring goals if he doesn’t want the pressure on him to end up being unbearable.
