    Dembele scored a goal either side of half-time to put his side in a comfortable position in the last 16 play-off round tie, leading by three goals heading into the home leg next week. The Frenchman is on an unbelievable run, scoring 18 times in his last 10 appearances.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Dembele's goalscoring streak includes two braces and two hat-tricks in his last four matches. It is a remarkable turnaround for a player who has long been heralded as having bucketloads of potential but had only scored five times all season prior.

  • WHAT LUIS ENRIQUE SAID

    Luis Enrique said when quizzed on Dembele's electrifying form after the 3-0 win: "You'd have to ask him what he ate at Christmas. He is a player full of confidence. Back when I played PlayStation as a kid, he was the kind of player you'd choose when you needed someone to change the game. He was already good last season but in 2025 he is even better. You can see his team-mates looking for him and finding him. He has an impeccable attitude."

    WHAT NEXT FOR PSG AND DEMBELE?

    Should Dembele maintain anything like these standards, it is a game-changer for PSG. The club have lost star names Kylian Mbappe, Lionel Messi and Neymar in the last couple of seasons, prioritising homegrown, youthful attackers, but could soon be enjoying the best of both worlds should their in-form forward consistently hit these heights, matching the standards set by his previous team-mates.
