Barca have managed to sign up Ronald Araujo this week which means their attention seems to have now turned to the Frenchman.

Diario Sport are reporting that the meeting was Sissoko’s idea as “he wants to know as soon as possible if there really are real options to renew” or if he needs to find the forward a new team.

Barca are also said to be keen to meet to resolve the issue. Dembele is said to be keen to continue, but there’s a suggestion that Barca are a little bit split on what to do next.

The report claims there are “people at the club who are still in favor of not renewing the footballer” because they don’t think he’s decisive enough to deserve the financial outlay required to keep him at the Camp Nou.

Barca apparently won’t improve their offer even though Xavi considers Dembele “an essential” part of his team. Yet the report thinks that if Sissoko is willing to meet with Barca it’s because Dembele has told him he wants to stay.

Meanwhile…

Moussa Wague was spotted in Barcelona training on Wednesday as the team got back to work after a few days off.

Wague only returned to action in January after a long spell out following a horror injury suffered while on loan with Greek side PAOK and is yet to play competitively.

However, the 23-year-old joined Xavi’s side and was given a warm welcome. The team also celebrated Ronald Araujo’s contract extension that was announced on Tuesday.

Xavi is short of options in defense ahead of Barcelona’s final five La Liga games of the season. Sergino Dest’s campaign looks to be over after he picked up a hamstring injury against Rayo, while Dani Alves has been struggling with an ankle problem.
