As the awards season approaches in European football, the question of who will be the best player of the year — the Ballon d'Or winner — is once again on the agenda among fans and experts. This time, the famous French midfielder Paul Pogba, leaving other star players behind, named Paris Saint-Germain’s winger Ousmane Dembele as the favorite.
When Pogba was asked about the main contenders in the race for the Ballon d'Or, he mentioned Dembele, Achraf Hakimi and Vitinha from PSG, Kylian Mbappe from Real Madrid, and young Barcelona talent Lamine Yamal. However, he specifically highlighted Dembele’s results this year, his achievements, and performances in big finals: "Ousmane won the Champions League this year, scored decisive goals for the team, and managed to make a difference at the most important moments. After such a season, he is undoubtedly one step ahead of the other candidates," Pogba noted.
"If Ousmane Dembele does not win the Ballon d'Or this year, it will be very difficult for him to win this award in the following years. This is his year!" says Pogba.
In his opinion, Dembele amazed many with his high level of technical skill, active movement with the ball, and selflessness in team play. Teammates also relied on him, and in key finals, it was Ousmane who made the difference.
Among experts and fans, Pogba’s opinion quickly became a topic of discussion. In previous years, there have been many contenders and the Ballon d'Or award has always been fiercely contested, but this time, Dembele’s advantage and achievements have made a strong impression on the public.
Now, all eyes are on the Ballon d'Or ceremony: will Ousmane Dembele really win the top prize this year or are there other surprises in store? Time will tell the answer to this question. But at the moment, Pogba and millions of fans are convinced that the Ballon d'Or will be awarded to Dembele. Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
