What if two French people won the Ballon d'Or two years in a row? Kylian Mbappé could follow in the footsteps of Ousmane Dembélé.

Tuesday evening, Paris Saint-Germain once again impressed football Europe.
The capital club torpedoed Bayer Leverkusen (2-7) at the BayArena, during the third day of the league stage of the Champions League.

On this occasion, Ousmane Dembélé made his return to competition. The French international had not played since his right hamstring injury with the France team, against Ukraine (2-0), on September 5. Coming into play shortly after the hour mark, the Ile-de-France number 10 found the net three minutes later.

“I feel good, I am regaining my sensations little by littlehe reacted at the end of the meeting, before discussing his future. As long as I'm hungry, I'll be at PSG. I'm happy to celebrate my hundredth match with the club with a goal. I hope to continue this momentum. When you are injured, you want to get back on the field quickly. I took my time to come back from this injury. »

Ballon d’Or, Mbappé to succeed Mbappé?

In the mixed zone, Ousmane Dembélé was also asked whether Kylian Mbappé would win a
Golden Ball. “Yes, I hope so!” He deserves it given his career, he replied. He's had a very, very good start to the season, he's only scoring. He's a friend of mine, I hope he continues like that. I hope one day he will win the Ballon d'Or too. »

Kylian Mbappé has had an impressive start to the season with Real Madrid. This Wednesday evening, the captain of the Blues will have the opportunity to showcase himself once again, against Juventus Turin.
