Barcelona star sends urgent message to Arsenal and Liverpool on the future of Dembele

- Frenchman Ousmane Dembele will not be leaving Barcelona when the transfer window opens

- This is according to his teammate Nelson Semedo who says Dembele is committed to Barcelona

- Arsenal and Liverpool are the two teams who are ready to lure him to the Premier League

Barcelona defender Nelson Semedo has revealed that Frenchman Ousmane Dembele will not be leaving the Spanish champions when the January 2019 transfer window opens.

This latest news will now be a big blow to Arsenal and Liverpool who have been in race for Dembele's signature to bring him to the Premier League next year.

But despite being out of favor at Barcelona this season, Nelson Semedo made it clear that Ousmane Demebele is not interested in leaving the Catalan giants.

"He is an excellent player, with a lot of potential and will help us a lot.

"He is totally committed to the team. Now he is more responsible and is showing it in the field.

"It must continue like this, and I am convinced that it will,'' Semedo told ESPN.

Dembele joined Barcelona in 2017 for £138 million as a replacement for Brazilian star Neymar who joined French club Paris Saint-Germain for a world-record £198m.

Last season, the World Cup winner was unable to replicate his Budesliga form at Barcelona as he scored only four goals for the Nou Camp club.

Buhari’s Legacy Of Recessions By Fredrick Nwabufo

Fredrick Nwabufo ‘Why always Buhari?’ As it was in 1984 under General Buhari, so it is in 2016 and 2020 under President Buhari? Is it by the unfortunate hands of kismet that recession hits Nigeria every time Buhari takes charge of the country’s affairs? If the recession of the 80s under Buhari was a conspiracy by economic and political factors, to what do we attribute that of his first coming as a civilian President — and now in his second coming? Why does pestilence scourge the land, hunger ravage the population and lives lost malevolently when Buhari presides over the country? Why always Buhari? Buhari’s undoing is his wonted predilection for hierarchising ethnicity, religion and loyalty above competence. Since 1999, no President has obtrusively shown a more nepotistic aspect than Buhari. It is unarguable that the President arrays the most competence-challenged cabinet ever in the chronicle of governance in Nigeria. Yes, a recession cabinet. Fredrick Nwabufo Here is a cabin...
