Stars in Europe - France - Keyplayer - Ousmane Dembélé

Ousmane Dembélé

Dembélé is a winger who can play on either flank, due to his ability to use both feet, and to utilise his technical ability, speed, and agility in order to get past opponents or beat defenders in one-on-one situations. Dembélé can also operate as a left or right-sided attacking midfielder in a 4-4-2 or 3-5-2 formation.

He is considered as one of the best players in the world. Dembélé is one of ten players to have won the FIFA World Cup, UEFA Champions League, and Ballon d'Or in their career. His clinical finishing and eye for goal also allow him to be deployed in a more offensive role as a striker. Dembélé also has great quality in terms of his shooting ability from distance.
