Images: Ousmane Dembele poses with his new number 7 jersey
Barcelona released their final squad numbers for the 2021-22 season earlier this week. The announcement revealed wholesale changes in the jersey numbers for the coming season.
In the same statement, the Catalans also revealed the new number 7 for Barcelona. It was indeed Ousmane Dembele who was revealed to be the successor of Antoine Griezmann for the highly sought after kit.
Earlier in the day, the Frenchman also posed for photos with his new jersey.

Before his move to Barcelona, Dembele was the number 7 for Borussia Dortmund. It was with the same kit number that he caught the eyes of clubs around the world.
The departures from the forward line at Barcelona put more pressure than ever on the youngster’s shoulders. Despite being linked with a move away from the club late last season, he will now have to be the one who carries the forward line.
One hopes that the change in number also brings a change in fortune for the winger.
