Euro 2020: Knockout games bring the best out of France – Hugo Lloris

A depleted France will draw motivation from the threat of elimination as they prepare to face Switzerland in their European Championship last-16 match, captain Hugo Lloris said on Sunday. World champions France topped Group F with one win and two draws ahead of Portugal and Germany but key players in their backline have picked up injuries to give coach Didier Deschamps a selection headache on Monday. While Ousmane Dembele and Marcus Thuram are unavailable, Deschamps confirmed full backs Jules Kounde and Lucas Digne are also ruled out against the Swiss. Left back Lucas Hernandez, who injured his knee, has a chance to feature. Speaking at a news conference, goalkeeper Lloris said France – who finished runners-up in 2016 – were accustomed to do-or-die situations and thrived under pressure. “W...

Barcelona open to selling Manchester United target for €50-60m amid contract standoff – report

Barcelona are willing to part ways with Ousmane Dembele this summer unless he is prepared to renew his contract, Sport claims. The 24-year-old has been with the Blaugrana for the past four seasons but has been limited to just 118 appearances due to regular injuries. His current deal expires in less than 13 months, and it is reported that the Frenchman has yet to show any intention of extending his stay. The Spanish giants are unlikely to stay patient for long and could sell him for €50-60 million if there is no progress in the negotiations. Sportslens view: Dembele had a good 2020/21 campaign for the Blaugrana with 11 goals and five assists from 44 appearances across all competitions. One of the big positives was his fitness. The Frenchman missed just six matches over the entire campa...

Barcelona intensify contract talks for €50m attacker, five-year deal on the table – report

Barcelona have intensified talks with the representatives of Ousmane Dembele over a new long-term contract, Mundo Deportivo claims. The Frenchman has been with the Blaugrana for the past four seasons, but he has managed just 118 appearances due to multiple injuries.

The attacker’s existing contract expires in June 2022. Aside from the wage concerns, Dembele also has differences over the sporting project.

Report: Barcelona open to selling Antoine Griezmann for the right price

Italian Sky Sports journalist Matteo Moretto has proclaimed that Barcelona are willing to sell French superstar Antoine Griezmann in the summer if they were to receive an adequate offer, in order to try and ease the pressure on their accounts. After a far from optimal start to his stint in Garnet and Blue, Griezmann has largely managed to turn his fortunes around. He has established himself as a very useful asset for Barcelona, and proved to be an instrumental part of the Catalans’ Copa del Rey triumph. However, despite his turn of form, there has been constant speculation regarding Antoine Griezmann’s departure from Barcelona. Considering the massive cost of his transfer from Atletico Madrid two seasons ago and his high wages, the club might be open to a sale in the summer. The upcoming t...
