The reason by which Malcom and Dembélé can play together

This week, the FC Barcelona has done official the contracting of a new signing for the forward: Malcom. The Brazilian player arrived to the pertinent Barcelona club of the Girondins of Bordeaux French in return of 41 million euros to reinforce the zone of attack of the team directed of Ernesto Valverde.

Several sectors of the press see in the signing of Malcom a serious threat for Ousmane Dembélé, since the French extreme did not achieve to explode in his first season in the Camp Nou and the Brazilian has arrived hardly a year afterwards to reinforce the same position in which the Frenchman played with more assiduity.

However, the reality is very distinct. It is necessary to have very in account that treats of two polyvalent players that can occupy practically any flank of the offensive zone. Especially striking is the case of Ousmane Dembélé, that in his career has played so much in the left band, as in the centre, as by the right feeling equal of comfortable thanks to that it is ambidiestro.

The case of Malcom is something distinct, since where feels with but capacity to show his virtues is playing hit to the right band to tend to the centre. In spite of that Ousmane Dembélé plays in the same position, the advantage of his polivalencia would allow him be in the same eleven that the Brazilian without problems.

Malcom and Dembélé, distinct virtues

Another of the reasons that sustenta the compatibility of Malcom and Dembélé in the same eleven is the fact to treat of players of distinct profiles. The Brazilian is a player more asociativo, to the that likes him come to the centre to combine with the midfield players and give the last pass to the forward. Besides, his far shot is a delight.

In the case of Ousmane Dembélé, treats of a player of pure one against one. The French extreme stands out by his endiablada speed and by his capacity of desborde: with spaces is lethal thanks to the versatility of his dribbling. The '11' Barcelona already has had his year of aclimatamiento and expects to explode this season.
