40 days ago, Ousmane Dembélé fell lesionado in the visit of the FC Barcelona to the Girona in Montilivi (0-1). The French suffered an injury in the previous rectum of the left thigh that has kept him in the infirmary since and, although the initial forecast was that it returned this weekend for the party in Saint Mamés against the AthleticClub , 'Dembouz' has stepped backwards 'forced' by the staff medical.

The attacker of 25 years will continue, at least, three weeks more out of action, by what will be of return to the announcements of the Barça after it culminate the stop of selections of this month of March.

The aim of the Barça with Dembélé

Now, they will expect the maximum to give him the high. Already they have 'survived' more than a month without him and understand that there will be problems by two parties more.

France and Deschamps will not have Dembélé

With the decision of the Barcelona picture to delay the return of the '7' to the terrains of game, ensure that Didier Deschamps do not summon it in the stop of selections of this month of March. If it appeared in the two parties that will contest in these weeks, the most likely was that 'them bleus' called him for the clashes in front of Low Countries (24/03, 20:45 CET) and in front of Ireland (27/03, 20:45 h) by the classification to the next Eurocopa.

The French, that has been drop from 28 January, is not in conditions to go back to play to the maximum level and, if it leaves with his selection, the Barça will lose practically all the 'control' of his recovery by two weeks and understand that it can be more riesgoso. Thus, as it seems up to now, it will remain in the City Condal trying recover his best level to be able to be present in the Classical of the Glass of Rey.
