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.

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism. To distinguish this type of poetry we have to refer back to the concept of appropriation we introduced earlier. At the simplest and basic level, the cultural mandate of possessing a people’s piece of the earth involves a mental and emotional homecoming within the physical environment. Poems like Brew’s ‘‘Dry season”, Okara’s “Call of the River Nun”, Nicol’s “The meaning of Africa” and Soyinka’s “Season”, to give a few examples,

The pioneering phase of African Poetry

The pioneering phase We have called the first phase that of the pioneers. But since the phrase “pioneer poets” has often been used of writers of English expression like Osadebay, Casely-Hayford and Dei-Anag, we should point out that our “pioneer phase” also includes Negritude poets of French expression. The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
