This Thursday, Barcelona is talking about the possible arrival of Ferran Torres and the agreement between the club and Manchester City. However, amidst this, a player from the Barcelona team could leave in the short term: Sergiño Dest.

According to reports from Daily Express, Sergiño Dest is to the liking of Thomas Tuchel, the coach of Chelsea. The German coach has asked his board to make an effort to sign the right-back from Barcelona.

The aforementioned media highlights that the 'blues' see Dest, who has been playing for Barcelona for a season and a half, as a substitute for Ben Chilwell. The latter suffered a partial rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee over four weeks ago.

Although the Barcelona full-back plays on the right side, he has also played on the left side in the Barça team.

Thus, it is added that the reigning champions of the Champions League would be willing to offer, as a first offer, 35 million euros for the international player with the United States national team.

However, despite Dani Alves' arrival at Barcelona, coach Xavi Hernandez considers the American player as key to lifting the project, which is not going well in La Liga (seventh place).

On the other hand, Footmercato states that Ousmane Dembélé wants to renew with Barcelona considering that his contract expires on June 30 and from January 1 he could have the freedom to sign with another club.

The aforementioned French media added that the idea of him continuing at Camp Nou comes from a personal decision, far from the interest of his representative to go to another club.
