Barcelona's Ousmane Dembele Is 'Like a Little Boy,' Says Kevin-Prince Boateng

Barcelona winger Ousmane Dembele is "like a little boy" who "still doesn't know how it all works," according to former team-mate Kevin-Prince Boateng.

The Fiorentina midfielder spoke to Sport Bild (h/t Goal's James Westwood) about Dembele's mentality and said he needs guidance during his time at the Camp Nou.

"He is very calm, does not talk much. He is still like a child for me. You have to take him as he is and it may be that he's late [to training]. There are players who do that in defiance, but that's different with him, he's just like a little boy.
