Ousmane Dembélé has expressed his desire to stay with Paris Saint-Germain despite ongoing contract speculation, as the reigning Ballon d’Or winner prepares for tonight’s Champions League clash against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
Ousmane Dembélé has addressed rumors regarding his future, stating there is “no reason” to leave the French capital as contract extension talks continue with his agent.
The 28-year-old, who was crowned the world’s best player last September following a quadruple-winning season, insisted that his focus remains entirely on the pitch.
“I haven’t managed that since the very start of my career,” Dembélé said regarding negotiations, noting that final decisions rest between the club and his representatives.
The French international enters tonight’s European decider in high spirits after scoring a sensational solo goal in last week’s 5-2 first-leg victory over Chelsea.
Despite an injury-hit campaign that saw him miss 14 matches, Dembélé remains a central figure in Luis Enrique’s tactical setup.
As PSG looks to defend their European crown and navigate a massive World Cup year, the forward’s commitment provides a significant boost to a side currently leading both Ligue 1 and their Champions League tie.
