Barcelona's record signing Ousmane Dembele is set to return from a long injury layoff in tomorrow morning's (Singapore time) Copa del Rey match against Celta Vigo, the club have said. Dembele, who joined Barcelona for a 105-million euro (S$168m) fee that could rise to 147m euros from Borussia Dortmund in August, made only three appearances for Barca before rupturing his hamstring against Getafe on Sept 16. The 20-year-old French forward returned to training last month and received his medical discharge on Tuesday.
The long injury layoff Ousmane Dembele experienced will reduce his chances of receiving the increased 147m euro fee.
