The Frenchman was once again vital in Bar\u00e7a\u2019s 3-1 triumph over Celta at Camp Nou, as he delivered assists for Memphis\u2019 breakthrough and Aubameyang\u2019s next strike.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Following the two contributions, he currently has thirteen assists in La Liga, two more than Karim Benzema and three more than his buddy Jordi Alba.\u00a0<\/span>Remarkably, 11 of the 13 assists have come in 2022, which is more than anybody other in Europe\u2019s top five competitions this campaign.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Ousmane Dembele has climbed to the forefront of LaLiga\u2019s assist rankings. The Barcelona forward has surpassed Real Madrid\u2019s Karim Benzema, with whom he had been paired only until the beginning of the latest encounter.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Before Thursday\u2019s match, the Real Madrid player boasts 11 assists, whereas the Barcelona player has 13. Jordi Alba is third with ten assists. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">It is indeed important to cue that Dembele has participated in 10 fewer matches in LaLiga Santander this campaign than Benzema.\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s1\">Owing to a thigh injury, the Barcelona player skipped the initial 13 LaLiga fixtures and was inactive for a while in January after declining to extend his agreement or leave.\u00a0<\/span>Xavi has drawn forth the finest out of him. Having the Catalan manager on the Barcelona sidelines, he delivered every single one of his contributions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Dembele launched his assist spree versus Elche. He also gained versus Sevilla, Valencia, and Levante in consecutive outings. He also assisted in games versus Athletic, Real Madrid, Osasuna, and Celta.\u00a0<\/span>Barcelona opened the goal versus Celta courtesy of a gorgeous ball from Dembele to Memphis. He formed Aubameyang in the later part.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Dembele\u2019s impressive displays alongside Xavi prompted the team to resume contract talks with him a month ago. Dembele\u2019s destiny continues uncertain, but he is yet again relishing his moments on the field with the Catalan manager Xavi.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\ud83c\udf1f \ud835\udfcf\ud835\udfd1 \ud835\udc00\ud835\udc12\ud835\udc12\ud835\udc08\ud835\udc12\ud835\udc13\ud835\udc12 \ud83c\udf1f<\/p>\n<p>After providing two assists last night, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/dembouz?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@Dembouz<\/a> is now the leading assist provider in <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/LaLigaSantander?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#LaLigaSantander<\/a>! \ud83c\udf81\ud83c\udf81<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/DesenlaceLaLiga?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#DesenlaceLaLiga<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/LaLigaSantander?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#LaLigaSantander<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/rXjxdzODbq\">pic.twitter.com\/rXjxdzODbq<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 LALIGA English (@LaLigaEN) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LaLigaEN\/status\/1524419309136605188?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 11, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ousmane Demb\u00e9l\u00e9 currently has 13 assists this campaign in La Liga. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":266,"featured_media":34085,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[2286,3259,2128,238,2067,2873,1817,3192],"class_list":["post-11616","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-football","tag-barcelona-fc","tag-celta-vigo","tag-dembele","tag-fc-barcelona","tag-fcb","tag-jordi-alba","tag-karim-benzema","tag-osumane-dembele"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11616","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/266"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11616"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11616\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/34085"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11616"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11616"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11616"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
