Ballon d’Or 2025: Dembele now big favourite as PSG beat Tottenham to win Super Cup

Paris Saint-Germain's Ousmane Dembele is now the frontrunner for the 2025 Ballon d'Or after being named Man of the Match in PSG's UEFA Super Cup victory over Tottenham Hotspur. Dembele played a crucial role in the match, scoring a goal and providing an assist to help PSG secure the win.

The game saw PSG come from behind to beat Tottenham, with goals from Micky Van de Ven and Cristian Romero. Dembele's performance has put him in contention for the prestigious award, having already been shortlisted for his contributions in Ligue 1, Champions League, French Cup, Trophee de Champions, and now the UEFA Super Cup.

PSG's victory in the Super Cup adds to their impressive trophy haul for the season, despite their loss to Chelsea in the Club World Cup final.
