Lucas Hernandez, Paris Saint-Germain’s 29-year-old defender, recently expressed his enthusiastic support for his 28-year-old striker teammate Ousmane Dembélé for the Ballon d’Or 2025. In an interview with L’Équipe, Hernandez hailed Dembélé’s exceptional season, underlining his decisive impact on the pitch and his collective commitment. This endorsement reinforces the debate surrounding the favourite for the prestigious individual award.
Hernandez “He’s had a fantastic season, on every level”.
Will you be singing with Dj Snake, Ousmane Ballon d’Or?
Yes, of course, I’m the first (laughs). Before DJ, I’ll be singing. He had a fantastic season, at every level. He was decisive in front of goal, he was decisive in the game, he was decisive in being the first to defend.
He’s an exceptional player. Personally, I don’t think there was a better player than him that season. Personally, I hope that all French people, and even those abroad, will vote for him, because he deserves it.
