Ousmane Dembele's spell at Barcelona has not gone according to plan

Ousmane Dembele's talent has never been in question. His two seasons at Rennes and Borussia Dortmund showed the world the potential that he has. However, it would be fair to say that a move to Barcelona has not worked out.

Dembele has missed more than 80 games in all competitions for the Catalan club since joining them in 2017 for a fee of €105 million. The France international has been injured for the most part, and he is currently injured as this is being written.

The 23-year old is capable of playing on the wings or as an attacking midfielder. Technically strong and good with both feet, Dembele's creativity and dribbling ability have been well-documented. The World Cup winner looks likely to leave Barcelona this summer, and many clubs are interested.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is a fan of the player. However, Arsenal, Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain have all been linked with the youngster as well.


#2 JADON SANCHO, BORUSSIA DORTMUND

Jadon Sancho has been persistently linked with a move to Liverpool's arch-rivals Manchester United. The young winger is said to be willing to leave Germany and return to England.

Liverpool are also in the mix. Sancho has been one of Bundesliga's best players since joining Borussia Dortmund in 2017. The England international has played all across the front-line, with his creativity and dribbling skills standing out. Full of pace and trickery, Sancho has been productive in the final third.

Regarded by many as a future Ballon d'Or winner, the 20-year old has made 32 appearances in the league this season. He has scored 17 goals and provided 16 assists. The former Manchester City player leads the squad for key passes per game and dribbles per game.

Apart from Manchester United and Liverpool, Sancho has also been linked with Real Madrid and Chelsea.


#1 KYLIAN MBAPPE, PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN

One of the best players in world football right now. Kylian Mbappe's rise to the top has been impressive, and he has arguably overtaken Neymar in the best players in the world list.

The forward has been at his usual brilliant best this season. Excellent creatively, as well as a world-class dribbler, Mbappe has it all. Strong and fast, the France international is also technically strong and a good reader of the game. His end-product has never been in doubt since his Monaco days, and he has honed this ability at Paris Saint-Germain.

The 21-year old has played 20 league games this season, scoring 18 goals and providing five assists. He comes second for shots per game, third for key passes per game and second for dribbles per game.

Apart from Liverpool, Real Madrid and Manchester City have als been linked with a blockbuster move for the French prodigy.
