Mbappé Wanted Dembélé at PSG to « Breathe » and Forget Everyday Pressure

There’s little doubt that Kylian Mbappé strongly desired the recruitment of Ousmane Dembélé at PSG: according to L’Equipe, the player is delighted.

It takes very little to please Mbappé. Remove Neymar, bring in Dembélé. Is that all? Well, that’s already significant. In L’Equipe, those close to the situation discuss this duo. « Ousmane, beyond his sense of humor, is someone very easygoing, and in moments of tension, provides Kylian with a way to decompress, » says someone in the entourage of the French national team.

« Ousmane is a breath of fresh air in our daily life, » adds a close associate of Kylian Mbappé. « Time flies faster with Ousmane, » Mbappé often says privately.

Will the recruitment of Dembélé help PSG convince Mbappé to extend his contract? We might be getting closer to that possibility…
