Dembele tells Xavi he wants to stay, promises new meeting with Barca

Last Friday, after the reports that he rejected Barcelona's extension offer, Ousmane Dembele reassured Xavi that his intention was to continue at Camp Nou, the reputable Javi Miguel of Diario AS says. The journalist is said to be close to the coach.

The winger said that his agent would have one final meeting with the club on Monday to make his position known.

This is why Xavi said during the Mallorca presser that there was going to be more talks. However, on Monday, Barca's director of football Mateu Alemany denied that such a meeting had been scheduled for that day.

Ousmane's deal with the Catalans expires at the end of the season. If he does not agree to extend his contract, the club will reportedly look to sell him in January.
