Ousmane Dembele scored one of the best team goals after sweetly finishing off a move during Barcelona’s El Clasico friendly win against arch-rivals Real Madrid on Saturday.
Barcelona outclassed Real Madrid 3-0 at the home of NFL giants, the Dallas Cowboys, but Dembele stole the show with one of the best goals of the Catalans’ pre-season campaign so far.
Following a beautifully worked freekick inside the fifteenth minute, Dembele finished off a curly screamer from a tight angle after the Real Madrid defence had been caught napping with a nicely worked freekick routine, Goal reports.
Pedri had worked the pass to new summer signing Ilkay Gundogan, who found Dembele running into space inside Los Blancos’ 18-yard area before laying the ball to him.
Further goals from 20-year-old midfielder Fermin Lopez and Ferran Torres ensured Barcelona showed their dominance against their arch-rivals before the kick-off of the 2023/24 La Liga campaign.
Xavi says Dembele is happy
Meanwhile, Xavi has insisted Ousmane Dembele is happy at Barcelona as speculations surround the future of the French forward with Paris Saint-Germain interested in his services, PSG Talk reports.
PSG are set to trigger the forward’s €50million, which will expire on July 31st, as Luis Enrique is a huge admirer of the 27-year-old winger and wants him at the Parc des Princes this season.
If PSG successfully activates Dembele’s release clause, the forward would be entitled to 50 percent of the payment, amounting to €25 million. The remaining 50 percent, also €25 million, would be paid to Barcelona.
