Ousmane Dembele received the world's most prestigious football award
The French striker of PSG has had an explosive season, contributing greatly to the French capital team winning the quadruple (Champions League, Ligue 1, National Cup, French Super Cup). This is the first time in his career that Dembele has stepped onto the podium at the Golden Ball award ceremony of France Football magazine, marking the spectacular return of a player who has experienced countless injuries and many twists in his career.
Dembele has an extremely successful 2025
When he lifted the title, he was moved, mentioning his mother, family, teammates and the difficult journey he had gone through. "What I experienced was extraordinary. I had an unbelievable year with PSG. Today I am here, proud of myself but still feeling nervous. Winning this award, and having Ronaldinho hand it to me, I really could not have dreamed of it. I want to thank Paris Saint-Germain for coming to me in 2023 and the team for treating me like a family member, President Nasser as a second father. The coaching staff and especially coach Luis Enrique have loved me so much like a family member," Dembele said.
