Dembele’s resurgence in the French capital has been heavily influenced by PSG boss Luis Enrique. The winger has evolved into a more complete player, contributing 19 goals and 11 assists across all competitions this term, while embracing the defensive responsibilities demanded by the Spanish coach. He credits this development to a clear understanding of his role within the squad.
"I try, on every ball and every match, to give the best of myself, to try to improve every ball I have, to set an example." Dembele noted. "These last two years, it has worked for me. The coach talked to me and told me that I had an important role for the team: to set an example, whether to the older or the younger players. And I want to continue to be efficient in small or big matches."
