Barcelona ready to bet on 16 y/o gem to replace Dembele

Although Xavi has acknowledged that Ousmane Dembele’s move to Paris Saint-Germain will create a significant hole in the team’s lineup, journalist Gerard Romero has asserted that the club has no plans to bring in another winger despite the premature departure of Dembele.

Instead, the Blaugrana management is prepared to place their bets on the prodigy from La Masia, Lamine Yamal, as the sentiments within the hierarchy are extremely favorable.

The city of Barcelona is currently managing a number of operations, including incoming as well as leaving traffic. Considering how important Dembele is in Xavi’s system, the impending transfer of Dembele to PSG has further shocked the team to its very core.

There have been discussions about the possibility of the club bringing in a direct successor for the Frenchman; however, it appears that the club will rely on in-house solutions provided by Yamal instead.

Could Yamal provide the solution?

Lamine Yamal, who is only 16 years old, has already demonstrated an astonishing level of talent. The youngster broke the record for becoming Barca’s youngest player to appear in a La Liga game when he made his debut with the first squad toward the close of the previous campaign.

The teenager also participated in the pre-season tour of the United States, which is when he displayed some of the limitless potential that he possesses. From within the club, analogies have been made between Yamal and Lionel Messi, who was formerly the captain of Barcelona.

There is a great deal of optimism surrounding Yamal, and it would appear that Xavi and the rest of the coaching staff are ready to place a bet on him for the upcoming campaign. They also appear to be prepared to train him for a larger role by having him spend time with the first team, where he can pick up tips from players such as Raphinha and Robert Lewandowski.

Barca have a diverse range of alternatives available to them.

With the exception of Yamal, Barcelona’s offense already has a considerable amount of depth.Ferran Torres and Ansu Fati will most likely return, however the fate of Ferran Torres is still up in the air. Ferran Fati is also expected to return.

When you consider players like as Raphinha and Ez Abde, who have proven they are capable of continuing their careers despite receiving offers from La Liga, the Bundesliga, and the Premier League, Barcelona possesses a sufficient number of players to fill each flank position.

At this point, the primary priorities for Barcelona are to acquire a right back and a midfielder. In this regard, Joao Cancelo, who plays for the same club as Bernardo Silva and is also a Brazilian, is widely anticipated to receive an approach.

The funds, if any, that Barcelona receives as a result of Dembele’s departure will be utilized to purchase further players.
