Ousmane Dembélé before the Ballon d'Or: "I had a good season"

Winner of the 2025 Onze d'Or, Ousmane Dembélé spoke about his 2024-2025 season.

With PSG, Ousmane Dembélé delivered a phenomenal 2024-2025 campaign, clinching the Champions League, Ligue 1, the Coupe de France, and the Trophée des Champions. This Wednesday, the French forward claimed the Onze d’Or, an award presented by readers of Onze Mondial to the best player of the season. On this occasion, the French international assessed his performances during the 2024-2025 season.

"I think it's because I had a good season with Paris Saint-Germain and we won just about every trophy possible. PSG's collective performance means that players from the club deserve to win individual awards. This recognition? It feels great. I'm proud; it shows that you've worked well throughout the season—and I’d even say, over all these years—to win individual honors. It touches me; my sacrifices and performances are being recognized," he said.
