The PSG striker, already impressed by the Brazilian legend, told TNT SPORTS Brasil :: “When I was told that it would be Ronaldinho who would give me the price … Of course, I already knew him, but it's a legend. Fantastic. »» For Ousmane Dembélé, this moment goes far beyond the trophy, he represents the chance to receive his first Ballon d'Or from the hands of a real legend from Barça and PSG, his clubs of heart.
