@ffpolo Dembélé’s connection with Xavi helped him improve weaknesses in his game. Xavi & his team devoted themselves to correction work with the Frenchman, on the field and in the video room. #fcblive

@ffpolo When the club wanted to sell Dembélé in December, Xavi convinced Joan Laporta and Alemany that, since they had Dembélé in the squad, it was better for him to play and not be a banned player in the locker room. Xavi believed in Dembélé’s ability. #fcblive

@ffpolo The player has worked a lot on his fitness and avoided injuries. Specific aspects in training, proper rest, a balanced diet and injury prevention work has finally allowed him to reach his peak physically & technically. Dr. Pruna has been paramount during these processes. #fcblive

@ffpolo Stability on a personal level with his wife and the motivation to explode once and for all and win a ticket to the next World Cup have helped him become focused & motivated in the right way. #fcblive

@ffpolo On another note, those who know him have even noticed a change in his way of dressing, more formal and elegant than before, and also in his attitude towards the media being more open & realising the benefits. #fcblive
