Dembele Named UEFA Champions League Player of the Season
Ousmane Dembele has been named UEFA Champions League Player of the Season after playing a key role in PSG’s title-winning run. The French winger delivered standout performances throughout the competition, scoring six times in the group stage and adding crucial goals against Liverpool and Arsenal in the knockout rounds.
Although he didn’t score in the final, Dembele was a constant threat as PSG crushed Inter Milan 5-0 to lift the trophy. His teammate, Desire Doue, also grabbed headlines after being named Young Player of the Season. The teenage sensation scored twice and assisted once in the final, becoming the first teenager to hit a brace in a Champions League final. He had already scored twice earlier in the knockout stages, capping off an unforgettable campaign.
Chelsea player Enzo Fernández is in discussions to join Manchester City. This information was revealed by Fabrizio Romano, who shared that the two clubs are discussing a potential deal.
He wrote: “Enzo Fernández has a verbal agreement with Manchester City on personal terms.
“Deal depends on club-to-club decision, as #MCFC have not sent an official bid yet, but contacts will take place soon; decision on price is up to Chelsea.
“Enzo could be out again this weekend.”
Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca mentions his captains for the team. He mentions Rúben Dias and Erling Haaland.
He shared “We have experienced players. For sure, we have leaders. Now we need to wait four or five more days until the transfer window closes to see if we can add one or two more captains to Ruben [Dias] and Erling , who at the moment are the two captains.”
Maresca confirmed the pair as part of his leadership group ahead of the 2026/27 season, with two more captains expected to be selected after the transfer window closes.
Chelsea manager speaks on the team and shares thoughts on considering a change in goalkeepers, giving another goalkeeper, Mike Penders, a chance.
“Penders is part of the squad, so he has an opportunity. We will decide and then I am giving the team tomorrow to the players, so I prefer to respect that they know first.”
