Barcelona defender Gerard Pique has weighed into Ousmane Dembele's contract row.

Barca are pushing to sell Dembele on deadline day today after he refused to accept new contract terms.

Pique said on Ibai Llano's Twitch stream: “I understand both sides. We are in a negotiation that involves a lot of money, everyone is free to defend their interests. I understand the position of the club and that of the player.

"We have to find the best solution for everyone. Before we started (the stream), I was reading about what might be going on but I don't want to get involved.

"We asked him a few times (to Dembélé) but he does not get involved, he is waiting to see."
