Barcelona appear to be edging away from renewing Ousmane Dembele’s expiring contract.
The French international is out of contract at the Camp Nou in four days time with time running out to reach an agreement.
However, despite fleeting optimism over securing personal terms for the 25-year-old, negotiations have hit a stumbling block in the last 24 hours.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano claims Barcelona have not made a final offer to Dembele with an update on the progress expected tomorrow.
Dembele’s representatives have made clear their expectation of improved contract terms for their client with Barcelona unwilling to match the requests.
The ongoing financial issues at Barcelona are playing a role in the indecision, but there is a lack of consensus on whether an improved deal is deserved, despite his positive form in 2022.
