Dembélé received the Ballon D’Or, surpassing Barcelona’s Lamine Yamal, while his teammate Vitinha secured third place in a competitive category.

Following the event held in Paris, PSG celebrated both athletes with congratulatory posts on their official X account.
Ladies and gentlemen, Ousmane Dembélé is your 2025 Ballon d’Or winner! 💫🏆
The club expressed satisfaction with Vitinha’s third-place finish.

Vitinha played in the Ligue 1 match against Marseille, which PSG lost 1-0, ending their perfect season start. Despite this setback, the team is likely unfazed, as they were missing key players such as Dembélé and Désiré Doué, both of whom attended the award ceremony.
Last season, Paris Saint-Germain triumphed in the UEFA Champions League and reached the final of the FIFA Club World Cup, where they faced a 3-0 defeat against Chelsea.
