Last summer, Barcelona chose to sign Dani Olmo, and in the process they mean the chance to sign an NU-PSG star that generates many conversations in France after a good debut season in the Ligue 1 champions.
Before the current season started, Barcelona was interested in Desire Done when he was still in the books of Stade Rennais. However, their decision to orchestrate the return of Olmo meant that they did not have the financial room to sign the French teenager, who would switch to PSG.
Doue has shown a lot of promise this season and his versions had led him to be compared to the best young attacker in the world: Lamine Yamal. And on Tuesday he responded to this matter when he spoke with the media prior to PSG's Champions League quarterfinals first stage against Aston Villa, according to MD.
“To improve, I only compare myself with myself. I analyze my competitions, my training, I wonder to retain my discipline. I hope this will lead me to the highest level.”
Doue is only 19, and although he is probably not yet at the Lamine Yamal levels, he has still shown that he is a top talent. Barcelona will probably feel disappointed that they could not sign him last summer, because the prospect of having both had been an extremely exciting.
In the end, Barcelona Doue and his PSG teammates could include in the final of the Champions League, both were allowed to reach the Showdown event in May. The Catalans will feel like their chances of getting Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich/Inter Milan, while the Ligue 1 -side certainty is more difficult because they come across Real Madrid of Arsenal when they see Aston Villa in the coming weeks.
