Barcelona full-back Jordi Alba insisted the squad were happy with Ousmane Dembele, although the forward has areas for improvement.
Dembele, 21, has endured disciplinary issues this season, but showcased his talent with a stunning individual goal against Tottenham in the Champions League on Tuesday.

"He is an important player for us," he said on Thursday.
"He's young, but in the dressing room we've never had any issues. At the end of the day he is playing well.
