Globe Soccer Awards – Dembélé savours it: "I'm living my best life" | OneFootball

Crowned at the Globe Soccer Awards, Ousmane Dembélé (28 years old), winger for Paris Saint-Germain, made a lasting impression with his speech. More than the individual award, the French international wanted to highlight the Parisian team and those who supported him throughout an exceptional 2025 season.

Dembélé "the president who was exceptional and who came to get me in Barcelona."

For Dembélé, reaching the top is accompanied neither by arrogance nor detachment. In a clear, almost raw speech, the Parisian unfolded the thread of his success without ever placing himself alone at the center. The staff, the president, Luis Campos, Luis Enrique: each had their place, like on a field where nothing works without balance. The nod to Barcelona also recalls a foundational choice, that of a PSG that came to get him to build, not to consume.

Above all, Dembélé insists on an idea he has been hammering for months: individual trophies are a consequence, never a goal. Even while stacking up distinctions, he remains true to this simple and demanding principle: the team first. And when he concludes with "I'm living my best life," it's not a provocation. It's the observation of a player who has reached maturity, aligned with his club, his game, and his role in Paris.
