Ousmane Dembélé, 28-year-old Paris Saint-Germain striker, spoke to Ligue 1+ after the 3-6 victory over Toulouse this Saturday at the Stadium as part of Matchday 3 of Ligue 1 2025-2026. He discussed his absence with a muscle problem, adapting to the victory, and his contribution to the goals.
Dembélé: “We’ll have an MRI and see. I don’t think it’s too serious.”
Reassure us, how are you feeling?
I’m fine, I felt a little discomfort before coming off. We’ll have an MRI and see. I don’t think it’s too serious. I know my hamstrings. We’ll see.
Dembélé: “We put our game together, we wanted to be very intense and score quickly. »
Tell us about the match, with that fantastic first half-hour?
Very well. We saw that Toulouse wanted to press us and not stay in front of goal. We had a lot of space. We set up our game, we wanted to be very intense and score quickly. We wanted to make Toulouse doubt themselves, and I think that’s what we did. They opened the match with three goals; we had more control, we played our game, and we rolled out the ball.
Do you adapt to all opponents?
Nantes and Angers were very difficult because it was our second and third match of the season; we were fresher. Toulouse wanted to press us, so we were able to set up our game, and as we said, we adapted very well to their pressure and rolled out the ball, especially in the first 15 minutes, putting in a lot of intensity and killing the match to score goals. That’s what we did.
Dembélé: “My teammates are serving me very well.”
You’ve been involved in 40 goals in 2025.
That’s good, that’s good, we have to keep it up. My teammates are serving me very well, and they’re really rewarding me by putting me in the best conditions to perform.
