The year of Dembélé: GQ hails a true all-round champion | OneFootball

Ousmane Dembélé (28 years old), winger for Paris Saint-Germain, has just been named "Man of the Year" by GQ France magazine. An accolade that comes after a season where he won everything, as GQ highlights in its presentation. The person in question talks about the Champions League, a Ballon d'Or, some personal fetishes, and a nod to Aznavour in a very self-assured portrait.

This distinction perfectly illustrates the upward trajectory of Ousmane Dembélé, who is clearly experiencing the most remarkable season of his career. Crowned in the Champions League with Paris Saint-Germain and awarded a Ballon d'Or, the 28-year-old winger embraces a "total" year, almost novel-like.

In the interview reported by GQ, he paints a self-portrait that speaks volumes about his newfound maturity: a player who claims his wedding ring as a lucky charm, who places Aznavour's Formidable as the soundtrack of his year, and who cites Equalizer 3 as his favorite movie.

This blend of intimacy, pop culture, and sacred football reveals a Dembélé aware of his own narrative. Paris was looking for a charismatic figure post-Mbappé: he may have just created one effortlessly.
