Paris Saint-Germain have received a major injury boost ahead of their Champions League group stage fixture against Bayer Leverkusen, with Ballon d'Or winner Ousmane Dembele returning to the squad.
Borussia Dortmund's decision to sign a teenage Ousmane Dembele in 2016 has come full circle, as the French winger has been crowned the 2025 Ballon d'Or winner after a glittering season with Paris Saint-Germain.
Ousmane Dembele capped off a remarkable season by winning the 2025 Ballon d'Or in Paris, with the Paris Saint-Germain forward dedicating the honour to both his current side and former club Barcelona.
Barcelona prodigy Lamine Yamal firmly believes he has what it takes to win the Ballon d'Or - not just once, but multiple times - as he sets his sights on football's highest individual honour.
Lamine Yamal has acknowledged the growing narrative surrounding Spain's UEFA Nations League semifinal against France, suggesting he's open to seeing the clash as a potential Ballon d'Or decider between himself and France winger Ousmane Dembele.
Ballon d'Or winner Rodri has returned to individual training with Manchester City, offering hope for his potential comeback this season after suffering an ACL injury in September.
