While Lamine Yamal is one of the competitors for the Ballon d'Or after having led Barca to a title of Spanish champion and a semi-final of the Champions League, Désiré Doué shone in the C1 final, scoring two goals and a decisive pass, thus folding the debate of the Golden Boy. What to place it at the same level as the Spaniard in the eyes of his teammate in club and in selection, Ousmane Dembélé, as he affirms in an interview with France Football.
“Frankly, the two are also strong. Lamine Yamal, everyone was already talking about him from an early age in Barcelona. When he arrived as a professional, we understood that he was exceptional and he took another dimension. In training, he dribbed, he was scoring, he also scored. To talk about Désiré, his integration was not easy at the start, he had to assimilate a new philosophy, then, little by little, he completely exploded. He will go very far, because, in addition, he has an incredible entourage ”said Dembélé.
