The 2025 gold ball race is coming to an end with the Club World Cup. On August 7, the 30 nominees will be known and it is a safe bet that many PSG players will be among the finalists. To begin obviously with Ousmane Dembélé, the main craftsman of quadruple made so far by the club of the capital (Ligue 1, Coupe de France, Champions Trophy, Champions League).
But the French striker will not be the only one of his team in the lot. Vitinha, Achraf Hakimi, Nuno Mendes and Gianluigi Donnarumma should, logically, also be part of the pre-selection of France Football. What to overshadow “Dembouz” and harm cohesion within the Parisian wardrobe? “It can be insidious”replies Raymond Domenech, questioned in the program The evening team.
“They left on Dembélé, there was no debate”
“It all depends on the nature of the team. The ideal is to have a dominant player and we are sure that it will be himhe explains. When there was (Lionel) Messi or (Cristiano) Ronaldo in the team, the others did not even discuss. »» However, the former coach of the Blues believes that the debate between all these players is closed in Paris Saint-Germain. “Everyone pushed for Ousmane Dembélé”he observes.
“The media are now trying to give other names, but everyone is talking about Dembéléadds the consultant. Currently, given the design and nature of the functioning of this team, they left on Dembélé. They all said it, there was no debate. »» It remains to be seen whether this lobbying will be enough to make the Parisian the winner, knowing that for his part FC Barcelona pushes very hard for Lamine Yamal.
