Barcelona have officially announced that Ousmane Dembele has signed a new contract with the club that will make him their player until at least the summer of 2024. The 24-year-old Frenchman signed the deal alongside Joan Laporta this afternoon.
Xavi Hernandez wanted to sign both Dembele and Brazilian international Raphinha – and he’s gotten both of them. Raphinha joined the club from Leeds United yesterday afternoon and now Dembele’s signature has also been confirmed. Both players add a real dynamism to Barcelona’s frontline and are exciting arrivals.
Dembele’s future has been up in the air for months. His previous deal expired at the end of June and his representatives had been shopping him around to the rest of the European elite – but the 24-year-old wanted to stay at Barcelona and work with Xavi.
Barcelona finished 13 points behind Real Madrid last season and failed to win any silverware – that’s unacceptable at Camp Nou. Laporta has been working hard all summer to give Xavi the tools to cut that gap next season and return Barcelona to their rightful place – competing for major honours in Spain and Europe.
“I’m very happy for the signing of this new contract,” Dembele said. “Barcelona has been the club of my life since I was a kid. I’m excited for this new season. I’m going to give it my all.”

I don't even know why this guy is still staying. The club is in a mess and it take dedicated players, players who will die hard for the jersey and not people who will break the heart of die hard fans.

4 of the 5? I put 6. Nico and torre will feature in a number of games. They wouldn’t be in the first team if they weren’t competitive. Also if we end up keeping Puig, Pjanic, and Collado. Bernardo is not a necessity this summer, even if he’d do very well.
Well, I said 4 out of the first five. I understand ur point as well. Nico,Torris, will help. But we need at least 5 players at that level of (top level) 4 are considered to be

Four of the first five, yes. The rest can’t be depended until proven. Need at least five competitive players plus Nico n Torris/ others. Silva? Which means U re in agreement with me. Additional

Gavi, Pedri, Torre, Busi, Kessie, Nico + Moleiro and Silva if they are to come. If anything, we should focus on fullbacks

I still believe he can be one of the best players in the world very few players are as gifted as he is it isn't too late to catch up with mbappe i know it's a very long shot but he has those capabilities to reach there
Yep, he is only 24 too. Plenty of time.

please you guys should stop adding Bus and Pique to any line, you don't want to club to grow? they should both be in MLS.
They both played very well last season. Why would we get rid of great players when we are trying to compete?

Congratulations for accepting our paycut even though you receive big offers from Clubs like Chelsea and PSG

Chelsea would have signed him for free instead of paying so much for Sterling...
