Barca's winter transfer window is a heavy task, and Dembele is the most headache for Barca
To say that Barca's task in this winter transfer window is not heavy, first of all, they need to register new signings Ferran Torres, they also need to deal with the departure or renewal of some players, and possibly reinforcements. Barcelona's new director, Alemani, is also a veteran of this, and the new official has begun to operate drastically. First of all, the renewal of the contract with Umtiti's salary cut not only dealt with the problem of Umtiti's high salary, but also successfully registered Ferrantores.

Umtiti's salary cut extension is a big move
Secondly, Coutinho went on loan to Aston Villa, and Barca was dealt with another high-paying player. Barca's top brass also need to address the renewal of captain Roberto and centre-back Araujo. However, compared with these two people, Dembele is the most difficult "nail household" to solve. Because Dembele is an instant fighter, it is of great help to Barca, but it is unstable. Secondly, Dembele's contract is about to expire, and he is a high-paying player, so whether to renew Dembele's contract or not is a difficult problem for Barca. Prior to this, due to Messi's departure, Griezmann's departure, and now Coutinho's departure, Bryce witt's injury and the shortage of all Barca forwards, Barca tended to renew Dembele's contract. However, Dembele's sky-high price has always made Barca unable to accept, so after many rounds of negotiations, they still did not talk together, so the two sides gradually tore their faces.
Barca executives are worried about the Dembele problem
Dembele's side was asking for a price, and Barca could not accept it, wanting to beat Dembele into the cold palace
According to the reporter's latest news, Barca recently held another negotiation with Dembele, and the negotiation of the extension of the contract between the two sides was basically broken. According to sources, Dembele hopes to renew its contract with Barca for 5 years, during which the total value is 200 million euros, including its own annual salary of 20 million euros and the broker's commission of 20 million euros. Barca rejected the condition.
After much fruitless negotiation, Barca believed that the club had released great sincerity, but Dembele still demanded a lot of money, so they wanted to punish Dembele. It is reported that Barca is ready to act quickly to inform Dembele that the renewal negotiations are terminated, and if the asking price of the renewal is not reduced, Dembele will not play for Barca in any game, which means that the last game against Real Madrid is likely to be Dembele's last game at Barca, and in the second half of the season, Dembele will be beaten into the cold palace and cannot participate in any competition.
Dembele may have been beaten into the cold by Barca
The wind is unanimous: put Dembele into the cold palace, and do not renew Dembele's contract
Barca's contract extension with Dembele is almost broken, and it is possible to beat Dembele into the cold house in the second half of the season, so what is the opinion of the fans? The rare consensus of the fans' comments is to support Barca's behavior, not to renew Dembele, to beat him into the cold palace to punish him, and the author also agrees with this view, for the following reasons:
Barca are in a period of reconstruction and have a poor financial situation, several of Barca's most meritorious captains have voluntarily taken salaries, and even Umtiti has cut salaries to renew his contract, and Dembele should not ask for a price even if he does not cut his salary.
The ability does not match the annual salary, and Barca should stop the loss in time. Dembele was introduced by Barca in August 2017 as Neymar's successor for a hefty transfer fee of €140 million, resulting in a surprising performance in these seasons. In these 5 seasons at Barca, Dembele has been in constant injury and has been lying in a hospital bed for far more time than playing time, can you believe that in five seasons, Dembele has only made 129 appearances for Barca? Even if Dembele comes on, the play is a good and bad one, passing the ball casually, shooting at random, which is the portrayal of Dembele.

I think it's good that the negotiations with Dembele's contract extension broke down. Dembele's high annual salary and instability, not renewing his contract is a timely stop loss, if just renewed for 5 years, Dembele is in an endless injury? Therefore, Barca's intention to beat Dembele into the cold palace can be described as an operation that makes fans happy.
