5 players who will thrive alongside Lionel Messi at Barcelona

Lionel Messi and Marco Verratti
Will we see both of them playing together very soon?

#4 Ousmane Dembele

Ousmane Dembele

The Borussia Dortmund superstar is one of the most coveted youngsters in all of Europe. The Frenchman has carved a name for himself as one of the best dribblers in all of Europe, right in the bracket following Messi himself.

The 20-year-old provided 18 assists while also contributing with 10 goals for Dortmund last season. Dembele can be the missing link stopping Barcelona, unearth the full potential of an unstoppable front four.

If they are able to sign the Frenchman, Dembele can start on the right-wing, use his pace, trickery, direct running, and a willingness to cross, while Neymar can take on the defence with his outlandish skills on the other side. Luis Suarez will be there to finish the chances created by the wizards on the wings and Messi will play as a number 10, providing the front three with defence-opening passes, while himself getting into scoring positions every now and then. It could well be the most mobile, versatile and fluid front four in the history of football.
