Barcelona’s Dembele has reportedly turned down an eye-watering offer from Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr. The proposal, totaling a €200 million, coupled with a lucrative 5-year contract, was enough to tempt any player. However, Dembele’s loyalty to Barcelona has emerged as the driving force behind his decision to reject the staggering ID.
The French winger, who has been a part of the Catalan club since 2017, has had a roller-coaster journey filled with injuries and inconsistent form. Despite facing immense criticism from fans, Dembele’s commitment to Barcelona has remained stable.
The rejected offer from Al Nassr could have made him one of the most expensive transfers in football history, an opportunity that many players would not have hesitated to seize. However, Dembele’s admiration for Barcelona’s rich footballing history, combined with the unwavering support he receives from the passionate Camp Nou faithful, has kept him grounded at the club.
