Finally : As Barca best player agent appears in England and mistakenly shows how his screen as he was on call with Ralf Ragnick over deal set to be done .
Ousmane Dembele's agent has appeared
to inadvertently show he was receiving
a call from Paris Saint-Germain sporting
director Leonardo after arriving in
Barcelona.

Moussa Sissoko was filmed by Spanish
television cameras leaving the airport
with his phone in his hand but a closer
look shows the screen lighting up with
someone calling him.
And El Chringuito TV zoomed in on his
phone to see the words 'Leonardo
PSG' on the screen.

The incident comes amid a stand-
off between Dembele and Barcelona,
with the France international in the final
few months of his Nou Camp contract.
Last week, the 24-year-old was told
to leave Barcelona 'as soon as possible
' and was left out of their round of 16
Copa del Rey clash against Athletic
Bilbao.
Director of football Alimony
then slammed Dembele for a lack
of commitment to the club.
'We understand Dembele's decision
is to not continue (at Barca) and we've
communicated our decision (to leave
him out),' Alemany said.
'We want players that are committed
to the club and we have told him he
has to leave the club as soon as possible.
'We started talks in July. We have
made several offers, which were all
rejected. He has been told that he
must leave the club, he is not
committed to the project.'
In response, Sissoko hit out at
Barcelona and said they are driving
Dembele away.
Sissoko said: 'They're putting the
pressure on, but it doesn't work
with people like us. Maybe it works
with agents who are close to Barcelona
. That's not the case with me, I'm
here to defend my player's interests.
'We're not here to react to debates on
social media, but the truth has
to be said. Yes, we have high demands,
but we've shown in the past that
Ousmane career choices are not
dictated by money, else he wouldn't
be here [Manchester United and
Real Madrid had higher offers in 2017].
'Then, if Barcelona wanted to
negotiate, they could have come to
the table with us to talk.
'Except there are no discussions
and there are threats coming from
them that he won't play. That's not
allowed. We will exercise Ousmane
Dembele's rights if necessary.


'We don't know what we're going
to do, nothing is decided. But the
management are losing
Ousmane by themselves.
'From the start, we've shown that
we wanted to negotiate, with terms,
but without closing the door.'
Dembele originally joined Barcelona
in 2017 from German side Borussia
Dortmund for £96million.
Since making the move to Spain,
the Frenchman has struggled to
maintain fitness and live up to
the hefty price-tag.
