Jase 43,479 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 29 minutes ago, Pizy said: Ousmane Dembele is the sort of signing Arsenal would make. Someone who is extremely talented but will never reach that top level consistently. If he was cheap I’d take a punt on him in the summer, but it looks like they want him out asap. So, you're saying you would want another inconsistent attacker? 17 minutes ago, Blues Forever said: Dembele will be a free agent this summer, that's why Barca want to cash him immediately. Why would a club buy him now when they can get him for free in the summer? And didn't he try to demand HUGE wages from Barcelona before this?

But several Barca journos are speculating it could be a ploy to leave Barca. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Kante 1,643 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 (edited) I can see us getting Dembele even if it is for his last six months and we go from there. Barca look like they want him gone now. Six month loan is a possibility imo. Not sure he is what we need as he makes Pulisic look like Superman with his injuries.

Strike 7,489 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 I doubt club will get Ousmane when there is heavy competition for his role. Think any new wingers will be in the summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d absolutely take him on a cheap deal now or free in the summer. His pace alone will mean he’s a massive upgrade on Ziyech and he can’t be worse than CHO in current form. I just don’t really see us buying another wide attacker as feasible right now since we’re stacked in that area. If we can bin a couple in the summer I’d have him here.

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Dembele has never played wing back and probably does not have the discipline for that role so I don't see any sense in signing him unless we will sell some wingers in return. Most of our attackers do not get enough game time anyway. Fun fact to lighten the mood is that Dembele cost Barca more than Lukaku cost us and now they are losing him for naught despite him being only 24.

Dembele cost around £55m MORE (t-fee and add-ons) in todays pounds, LOLOL Lukaku was £95.7m (as we got £1.8m back in a good faith fee from previous deal) so £96.83m today with 6 months inflation Dembele was £135.5m in fees and add-ons, which is now (crazy inflation over past 4.5 years) £151.88m in today's quid!!!
