PSG striker and "Golden Ball" award winner Ousmane Dembele has named the footballers he took example from.
Lent.az reports that the French player specifically mentioned Lionel Messi, with whom he played together at Barcelona from 2017 to 2021.
"I was playing with Lionel Messi in Barcelona. It was necessary to see how he moved, how he confused the opponents. I always knew that the ball would reach his feet accurately, because Busquets understood him perfectly. Messi plays in the number nine position, moves to the flanks, and is everywhere there is a gap on the field. He would stand on the offside line and suddenly rush forward.
I have observed this for seven years. Today, I am also trying to play in a similar style. I also watch Harry Kane. He is a great football player. Mbappe plays in the number nine position at Real. They are the footballers I watch," Dembele said in an interview.
