Hoffenheim coach Julian Nagelsmann has blasted Ousmane Dembele over his antics at Borussia Dortmund.

With Barcelona pushing to sign the Frenchman, Dembele skipped training last week.

Nagelsmann has been following the saga and declared: "In real life, you cannot ask for credit, sign it and then go back to the bank after three weeks and tell them 'I do not want to make money, do what you want'.

"When you sign a contract, you have to respect it. It must also be applied to football and players. If it happened here, I would not like it at all. If the player wants to go and the two clubs agree, it's something else, but Dembélé has signed a contract to play Dortmund, and if what is said is true, it's not legitimate to have walked out of training."
