Barcelona president: Dembélé is better than Neymar

Josep Maria Bartomeu has spoken. The FC Barcelona president has declared that his current player, Ousmane Dembélé, is better than his former player, Neymar.

In an interview with Cadena SER partially transcribed by Diario SPORT, Bartomeu was asked whether ex-Barcelona star Neymar would leave Paris Saint-Germain. “I won’t say yes or no,” Bartomeu began, “I will say that with the money from his sale, Barça made an investment. We made an investment in players like Dembélé and Philippe Coutinho. Dembélé is better than Neymar. He is Barça’s, and the better one is him.
