Dembélé is considered one of the best players in the world this season, winning the title of top scorer of PSG, champion of Ligue 1, and playing a key role in his journey to the final of the Champions League. With 33 goals and 48 assists in all competitions, it is considered the current favorite for the Ballon d'Or.
PSG and Dembélé at the top of Europe
Its level of form at PSG marks a significant change after its disappointing passage in Barcelona. Arrived from Borussia Dortmund in 2017, Dembélé was one of the most promising players in Europe. But his six years at the club were marked by injuries and criticism of lack of professionalism, which led him to his return to France two years ago. However, former technical secretary Fernandez explained what really happened with Dembélé and said he was delighted to see him flourish.
“” No one has been patient. Neither the press nor the club, and it was too young to understand a lot of things “He told Mundo Deportivo. “” It is reality. But he gave us a lesson. He had already taught us in his last year at Barça. Everything we said – that he was not a good professional, that he came out in the evening, that he was drinking – was false.
Dembélé Revenge
“After two very serious injuries, in a very difficult environment, he demonstrated that he was a great professional. Another player, at his age, would have threw in the towel. But he didn't do it. He continued to work, recovered, played very well with Xavi, and he was very appreciated by him. He is fine now. He put a slap on us. And I am very happy that everything is going well for him. He's a very good boy, and he was a great professional. Overcoming two serious injuries and getting out of such a difficult situation is not within everyone's reach. He is 28 years old, a magnificent age.
