Benzema pulls no punches on Dembélé and his time at PSG | OneFootball

Karim Benzema delivered a strong tribute to Ousmane Dembélé (28 years old) in an interview with AS. The Al-Ittihad striker praises an "exceptional" player who shone at Paris Saint-Germain and won a Ballon d'Or thanks to his decisive goals. A rare recognition from a significant source.

Benzema "He’s a good person"

Karim Benzema's words are never random, and this perspective on Ousmane Dembélé sheds new light on his time at Paris Saint-Germain. The Frenchman, often described as elusive, has actually built a path of resilience: injuries, doubts, overwhelming expectations... and yet, at the end of the road, a Ballon d'Or.

Benzema, who knows better than anyone the price of consistency at the highest level, emphasizes Dembélé's ability to be present in crucial moments, those that shape the legend of a player in the eyes of a locker room as well as a club.

This praise also highlights the real impact of his decisive goals, often overshadowed by the image of a whimsical player. The compliment from one Ballon d'Or winner to another underscores what some have sometimes forgotten: in Paris, Dembélé not only progressed, he marked an era.
