Ousmane Dembele is reportedly ‘happier than ever’ at Barcelona following the arrival of his close friend Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in the final stages of the January transfer window.
Barcelona told Dembele to leave Camp Nou last month, with the France international refusing to sign a new deal, and he is widely expected to seek pastures new when his contract expires at the end of June.
However, the World Cup winner has been brought back into the squad by head coach Xavi and was used off the bench in Sunday’s 2-2 draw with Espanyol in La Liga.
According to Sport, despite the uncertainty surrounding his future, Dembele is ‘happier than ever’ at Camp Nou following the arrival of Aubameyang from Arsenal.
The report claims that the pair share a close friendship following their time together at Borussia Dortmund, and Dembele’s mood has been lifted since the Gabon international’s arrival.
The Frenchman, who is also said to be well liked in the dressing room at Camp Nou, is believed to be a summer target for Manchester United, while Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal, Liverpool and Juventus have also been credited with an interest in his services.
