The 2024/2025 season was historic for Paris Saint-Germain, but also for Ousmane Dembélé. A key element of Parisian success, the French international signed the most prolific season of his career (35 goals, 16 assists). And if the former Blaugrana achieved such a performance, it is largely thanks to Luis Enrique. The Spanish coach had a hollow nose by repositioning Dembélé in false 9, but above all he instilled a new winning mentality in the Ile-de-France team. Asked by CNNDembélé did not fail to pay tribute to his coach.
“I think the mentality of the players, of the team, has changed. We also have an incredible coach who has evolved this mentality in all the players. We really suffered, especially in the Champions League. I think we played very well in the first part of last season, but we struggled to score goals, to finish things. And then, during the second part, especially at the end of November, the end of December, Paris Saint-Germain completely changed. And then we raced to victory, we played our football until the end. We believed it because we had to believe it. We also had a bit of luck because in football you need luck to win all these trophies. All footballers want to be part of a very strong team collectively. As the coach told us again, it is by being a team that we can win all these trophies, and that is what we did, especially in 2025, and we will try to do the same thing in 2026. The philosophy of Paris Saint-Germain and the team is not going to change. We want to be a united team and, above all, a great team”he declared.
