Many exciting names are being traded for the so urgently needed transfer offensive at FC Bayern – one of them is the free transfer Ousmane Dembélé (25) from FC Barcelona: The highly gifted player is prone to injuries and is considered a difficult character. Does a transfer to Munich even make sense?
Dembele for Gnabry? Winger Serge Gnabry (26) has been letting FC Bayern fidget for months and has so far refused to prematurely extend his contract, which runs until 2023 – although Munich is said to have offered to double his salary (nine million euros a year). If Gnabry leaves in the summer, Barcelona’s Ousmane Dembélé would be a real alternative in this position.
Solid values: However, the pure numbers speak a slightly different language. In the 2016/2017 season, Dembélé scored ten goals and provided 22 assists in 50 competitive games for Borussia Dortmund. The French national player can no longer match these dream values in Spain. According to “Bild”, the offensive man played 149 competitive games for Barcelona, scored 32 goals and provided 34 assists.
Gnabry better: If you look at Serge Gnabry’s numbers for comparison, Dembélé falls significantly. Gnabry has scored 64 goals and 40 assists in 171 competitive games during his time at Bayern. It fits that the “kicker” wants to know that Dembélé is not an issue at Bayern – without naming sources. “L’Equipe”, on the other hand, claims that the record champions are ready to present the Frenchman with a four-year contract with an annual salary of 18 million.
