The Rise, Fall & Rise Again of Ousmane Dembele

Not long ago, Ousmane Dembélé was called the worst signing in Barcelona's history. Today he's the best player in the world. This is the rise, fall and resurrection of Ousmane Dembélé — the £135 million flop who became a Ballon d'Or winner. From Dortmund prodigy, to Barcelona write-off, to Luis Enrique's PSG, where he exploded: 35 goals, a first-ever Champions League, and the 2025 Ballon d'Or. And now, at the 2026 World Cup, the man who'd never scored a World Cup goal just put a first-half hat-trick past Norway. They called him a flop. He called himself a Ballon d'Or winner.
