Ousmane Dembele is looking sharp! Ballon d'Or favourite heads to Paris ceremony in custom-made tuxedo as rival Lamine Yamal lands in French capital

Dembele has been showing off his custom-made ZEGNA tuxedo ahead of the ceremony at the Theatre du Châtelet in Paris on Monday night. The forward is the leading candidate to win the 2025 Ballon d'Or after scoring an incredible 35 goals and bagging 16 assists for PSG last season as Luis Enrique's side won a quadruple, including a first ever Champions League title.

Dembele's main rival for the Golden Ball is Barcelona's teenage wonderkid Lamine Yamal. The youngster helped fire Hansi Flick's side to La Liga, Copa del Rey and Spanish Super Cup titles last season, scoring 18 goals and grabbing 25 assists along the way. The 18-year-old will attend the ceremony and has been spotted jetting into the French capital on Monday.

Dembele is expected to attend the ceremony at the same time as his team-mates are taking on Marseille in Le Classique. The game was originally due to be played on Sunday but was rescheduled due to heavy rain and will now go ahead on Monday night instead. Dembele is not in the squad due to a hamstring injury and looks set to take his place at the ceremony instead.

If Dembele does scoop the big prize on Monday night, he will become the sixth French player to win the Ballon d'Or and follow in the footsteps of Raymond Kopa, Jean-Pierre Papin, Karim Benzema, Zinedine Zidane and Michel Platini.
