Dembele had a brilliant season. |
On Goal 's Ballon d'Or race rankings, the PSG star is firmly in the lead. With 9 goals and 3 assists, along with the title of Best Player of the Champions League this season, Dembele is very close to the prestigious individual award of France Football .
"No player has had a more successful 2024/25 season, both individually and collectively, than Dembele. That's why Dembele should be considered a leading candidate for the Ballon d'Or award," commented Goal .
The Ballon d'Or usually goes to players who win major club honours in seasons without a World Cup or Euros, and Dembele was central to PSG's historic treble this season.
Additionally, there is no major national team tournament (World Cup or Euro) in 2025, so club performance will be the main factor.

Before the final, according to calculations from CIES , Dembele also led the race for the 2025 Ballon d'Or with a 63% chance of winning, far surpassing Mohamed Salah (9%), Lamine Yamal (23%) or Raphinha (21%).
On Goal 's rankings, the two positions behind Dembele are Lamine Yamal and Raphinha (both from Barcelona). The Catalan team's elimination in the Champions League semi-finals is a big minus for these two stars.
In the race for the title of Best Young Player of the Champions League this year, Yamal also lost out to another PSG star, Desire Doue. At 19 years and 362 days, Doué became the youngest player to score a brace in a Champions League final, surpassing the legendary Eusebio.
The 69th Ballon d'Or award ceremony took place on September 22, 2025 at the Theatre du Chatelet in Paris, an event considered the pinnacle of honoring outstanding individuals in football.
