Mini bio
How it started.
Born in Vernon, Dembélé began playing at Évreux before joining Rennes’ academy. His 2015/16 breakthrough season brought Ligue 1’s best young player award and a move to Borussia Dortmund in 2016.
Across Europe.
Barcelona signed him in 2017. Over six years there, he won three league titles, two Copas del Rey and two Spanish Super Cups. With France, he became a World Cup winner in 2018.
Finding his place in Paris.
He joined PSG in August 2023. In a July 2025 interview, Dembélé credited Luis Enrique’s decision to move him into a number 9 role, his teammates and a change in his own confidence for his progress in front of goal.
The European breakthrough.
PSG’s first Champions League title in 2025 brought Dembélé UEFA’s Player of the Season award. He won the Ballon d’Or that September, then scored the equalising penalty against Arsenal as Paris retained the European title in May 2026.
