Lacking motivation? Dembélé’s powerful words | OneFootball

Ousmane Dembélé, 28-year-old forward for Paris Saint-Germain and the French National Team, now has a particularly impressive list of achievements after winning the Champions League last season. Could he lose his motivation? He responded to this idea in an interview with the media outlet Onze Mondial this Thursday.

Dembélé: “Great champions don’t win just once.”

Of course, there can be a bit of a letdown after winning such an important title. Especially since it was somewhat “the one missing” for Dembélé. We’ve already seen players “decline” afterwards, relax a bit in terms of seriousness or commitment. This has been considered for this Parisian group, which has just made history.

However, Dembélé’s message is clear and matches what we’ve seen from president Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, coach Luis Enrique, and other players. The desire to win is still there. The end was not reached at the close of the 2024-2025 season. It’s a wonderful milestone, which should lead to more victories. In fact, we’ve seen this determination again since the start of the season.

There is never a guarantee of winning; the competition will be very tough again this season. But we can be quite sure that this group still intends to make history. That means more titles, as Dembélé very rightly points out.
