Xavi Hernandez chose to welcome on Ousmane Dembele with 20 minutes to go during Barcelona's Catalan derby at Espanyol on Sunday night, with the score at 2-1 for Los Periquitos.
Following the entire show that accompanied his choice to neither leave the club in January nor reestablish his agreement, Dembele was frozen out by the club.
Dembele was dropped from Barcelona's crew before their Copa del Rey tie against Athletic Club and hadn't included in LaLiga Santander since his group's 1-1 draw away at Granada on January 8.
The club were against permitting Dembele to play for Barcelona once more, yet Xavi appears to in any case have him in his arrangements, as he exhibited against Espanyol.
Xavi pushed after the game against Atletico Madrid that he didn't utilize Dembele in light of how the game changed after Dani Alves' shipping off.
The previous Borussia Dortmund forward was given his chance at the RCDE Stadium in the wake of falling off the seat to supplant Jordi Alba in a game that finished in a 2-2 draw.
