Barcelona save 10 million euros with Dembele injury
Posted Tuesday, September 19, 2017 by Marca.com
Although Barcelona will miss Ousmane Dembele's presence on the pitch, behind the scenes they will be taking some positives from his injury as his time on the sidelines will save them 10 million euros.
One of the variables agreed as part of his big-money move was that if he played 50 games for the Catalans this season, an additional 10 million euros would be paid to Borussia Dortmund.
With the injury suffered at Getafe, the winger could miss up to four months of action, guaranteeing his appearances will fall some way short of the agreed number.
Dembele will be operated on in Finland on Tuesday as he looks to start on his long road to recovery.
