Singled out for his offensive shortage since his arrival at PSG, Ousmane Dembélé is not worried and highlights his contribution.

Three months after his arrival at PSG, Ousmane Dembélé is still looking for his first goal in his new colors. The French international thought he had scored against AC Milan a fortnight ago but a prior foul from Achraf Hakimi forced the referee to cancel his goal. The former Barcelona player, however, spares no effort in the right lane.

Friday, against Montpellier, the native of Evreux was one of the best Parisians, undermining the Hérault defense. Decisive passer on Warren Zaire-Emery’s goal, the French world champion was also involved in the two other Parisian achievements. A successful performance in which he only missed one goal. This goal which would undoubtedly have allowed him to silence certain criticisms.

Questioned in the columns of The Team, Ousmane Dembélé returned to his beginnings, which he currently considers “average”. “ I have to give a little more. I know it will come, because it’s a new club. The more matches follow one another, the better I will be. he explained, specifying: “I don’t judge my performances on a goal scored. You can score a goal and be bad in the match. You can not score and be very good. But, in 2023, it’s the statistics that count. »

“I think I’ll progress in this sector, but it doesn’t bother me. I sleep very well at night, I always have confidence in myself, he continued. Even if I miss something, I’ll try it again. Like I said, it’s not just the goal that matters. But I will work on it. I am often told that I use force when I am in front of goal. I think it’s because I have less lucidity because I start from far away when I try to eliminate one or two players. »
