Barcelona legend Hristo Stoichkov criticized Ousmane Dembele, who does not want to stay at Camp Nou any longer and is close to a transfer to Paris Saint-Germain. It turned out that the French striker asked to be sold, which will bring only 25 million euros into the Catalans’ coffers, because due to a special agreement, he must receive half of the 50 million euros included in his buyout clause.<\/p>\n
\u201c20 full games in 4.5 years! In my time, you would have cleaned my shoes”, the Bulgarian spat at Dembele in a TV studio.<\/p>\n
“Sorry, but injured for 108 fights. 18 goals and 16 assists, and is worth 140 million euros plus bonuses. I myself made an effort to learn what Barcelona means and what the history of the club is. I learned about the era of Kubala, Carrasco, Hanzi Krankle, Lineker, Baquero, Salinas, Alessanco. And you never learned what Barca means. Hristo Stoichkov tells you the following: If you don’t want to stay in the team, at least don’t show disrespect to the club emblem. Take your shirt off and say, “Ladies and gentlemen, I’m leaving. Thank you very much for being here for 4.5 years fooling people into believing that I know how to play football\u201d. I’m telling you this because I played that position and you didn’t even try to learn which players played there before you. If you don’t like it in Barcelona, thank you and goodbye.”<\/p>\n
“Senor Laporta, open the door and let him go. People who don’t feel what it’s like to defend the colors of Barca, get out. This locker room deserves respect. With a history of 121 years, the club deserves respect”, the Bulgarian concluded.<\/p>\n
