During the PSG parade this Sunday on the Champs-Élysées, Marquinhos took the microphone and voted for Ousmane Dembélé in the Ballon d'Or.

Day of celebration and sharing this Sunday in the streets of Paris. The day after its first victory in the Champions League final, Paris Saint-Germain offered a parade with a rise in the Champs-Elysées. From the top of the imperial bus where he sat with his teammates, Marquinhos took the opportunity to make Glory in Ousmane Dembélé. With a message to the key.

The Parisian bus approached the Place de l'Étoile. Since the start of the course, the players have been chaining the songs heard regularly at the Parc des Princes. Playing with the public who came en masse along the avenue, several footballers took the microphone to accompany the songs. It was then that Marquinhos took an initiative. The captain of PSG grabbed this famous microphone.

Turning to the public, he first remained silent. Then he repeated very hard and repeatedly:
“Ousmane, Ballon d'Or!” »» Three words that the supporters immediately claimed in return. A message sent to the voters of the 2025 edition of the coveted individual reward.

A decisive France-Spain for the Ballon d'Or?

Because the struggle between Ousmane Dembélé and Lamine Yamal remains largely balanced and open. Some said to themselves that if the tricolor international scored one or two goals during the final won against Inter Milan (5-0), things would be folded. But since Dembélé rather focused on the pressing, he did not find the flaw.

The two favorites of the Ballon d'Or will find themselves face-to-face on June 5 in the semi-final of the League of Nations. The trend could once again switch to the Spanish side or more French on the result. Marquinhos has whatever happens to have been chosen by his camp.
