Paris St-Germain and France forward Ousmane Dembele has been named the men’s player of the year at the Fifa Best awards.
The 28-year-old, who won the Ballon d’Or in September, picked up the award in Qatar on Tuesday after helping PSG to four trophies in the 2024-25 season.
The former Barcelona and Borussia Dortmund player, who moved to the Parc des Princes in 2023, managed 51 goal contributions in 53 games for Luis Enrique’s side last term.
After helping PSG to a first Champions League triumph, Dembele beat Barcelona’s Lamine Yamal and Real Madrid’s Kylian Mbappe to the prestigious individual award.
Dembele was present at the awards ceremony before his side’s Intercontinental Cup final against Flamengo on Wednesday.
