French forward Ousmane Dembélé has been named the 2025 FIFA Best Men’s Player, capping a remarkable season with Paris Saint-Germain. Dembélé’s leadership in PSG’s attack guided the club to its first-ever UEFA Champions League title, a domestic treble, and a FIFA Club World Cup final appearance. His consistent performances placed him ahead of finalists Kylian Mbappé and Lamine Yamal.

Accepting the award, the 28-year-old expressed gratitude to his teammates, family, and PSG staff, calling the honor a reward for collective hard work. Dembélé also thanked club president Nasser Al-Khelaifi and sporting director Luis Campos, pledging to return to the FIFA stage next year. The recognition follows his earlier Ballon d’Or win, marking a double triumph in 2025.

In the women’s category, Spain’s Aitana Bonmatí claimed her third consecutive FIFA Best Women’s Player award, while England coach Sarina Wiegman and PSG’s Luis Enrique were named the best women’s and men’s coaches respectively.
