BARCELONA (Reuters) - Barcelona coach Ronald Koeman has said that Ousmane Dembele is no longer a guaranteed starter in his team due to the emergence of Ansu Fati but said it was up to the French winger to decide whether or not he wishes to stay or move away from the Camp Nou.

Dembele was linked with a move to Manchester United among other clubs on Wednesday, with the transfer window shutting on Oct. 5.
