Barcelona star Ousmane Dembele out for six months
Barcelona have announced they do not expect Ousmane Dembele to play again this season, ruling him out for six months.
Ousmane Dembele will be out for around six months after having hamstring surgery, Barcelona confirmed.
The 22-year-old has suffered a number of hamstring problems since joining from Borussia Dortmund in August 2017 in a deal worth up to 147 million euros ($160.5 million).
His latest setback could prompt Barcelona to buy a replacement up front, if the club are granted permission to make an emergency signing by the Spanish Football Federation.
