The Frenchman was instrumental against Levante last night and has now put up eleven assists in fourteen La Liga games according to Mundo Deportivo.

That means the winger has now equaled in terms of assists with Real Madrid hit-man Karim Benzema, although it took him 27 games.

Football espana reported that “In terms of the calendar year of 2022, Dembele has provided nine assists so far, more than anyone aside from Paris Saint-Germain playmaker – and his former Barcelona teammate – Lionel Messi.’

“Dembele’s contract with La Blaugrana expires at the end of this season and while Barcelona want to retain his services it’s not clear if they’re actually going to be able to.

Both parties have been some way apart in negotiations thus far and they’re going to have to meet halfway if there’s to be a fruitful resolution. But he’s clearly proving his value on the pitch.”
