Xavi says Dembele reached Neymar's Barca levels
"I’ve never seen Dembele's one-on-one ability shown by any other player! He's at the same level as Neymar in this respect! There are not many players like that. It is very difficult to defend against him," Xavi has told the media.
This is quite a statement! Maybe it is still too early to compare Ousmane to prime Neymar, but we already start to see the flashes of the Brazilian's best Barca days in the Frenchman.
Dembele has scored one goal and provided 4 assists in just 5 games for Blaugrana this season.
