Asked about the atmosphere within the Paris Saint-Germain squad, Ousmane Dembélé released a short sentence that was quite meaningful…
Ousmane Dembélé is a fulfilled player. After a not necessarily convincing start to the season, marked by a certain awkwardness in the zone of truth, the French international has become unstoppable again. And he’s not surprised by how things turned out.
“We had to digest the transfer from Barcelona to PSG. At the beginning, I searched a lot for myself, but I never doubted myself and my abilitiesexplains Dembélé in an interview with Le Parisien. I knew I was going to come back very strong. Some players are exceptional from the moment they arrive and others need time. In Dortmund, I exploded straight away and in Barcelona, it happened little by little. It’s a bit the same thing in Paris, with fewer injuries. »
A united locker room… and that changes
In the PSG squad, Dembélé has also integrated perfectly. Wanted by his friend Kylian Mbappé, the former Rennes player found a French-speaking locker room, in which he plays an important part.
“PSG, a team of friends? Yes, it’s true. Already because the Spaniards and the Portuguese have known each other for a long time. Everyone communicates and gets along very well”explains Dembélé, who will then make a little confession full of meaning. “PSG wasn’t always sold to me like that…”added the Frenchman, who implies that the atmosphere has not always been ideal in the Parisian locker room.
