Indeed, Barcelona have done well to retain the services of Ousmane Dembele, and the Frenchman is proving he can be an important player to the team next season.
Dembele showed his creative nous despite lasting just 45 minutes on the pitch against Juventus.
The France international scored a first-half brace to put Barcelona ahead 2-1 ahead at half-time, and both goals were superb piece of individual brilliance.
Speaking after the game, Barcelona boss Xavi Hernandez sang the praise of Dembele, and also urged him to be consistent.
Xavi told the media: “Today he [Dembele] has shown what he is capable of. He is special. There aren’t many players like him.
“He must make the difference. He must be more consistent, of course.”
For all of Dembele’s brilliance, Barcelona could only play a 2-2 draw with Juventus.
Xavi blamed the hot temperature for the draw.
“The grass and the high temperatures have hurt us, but I am very happy,” Xavi said after the 2-2 draw against Juventus.
