Ruud Gullit Backs PSG’s Desire Doue to Rival Yamal for Future Ballon d’Or
Former AC Milan and Chelsea icon Ruud Gullit has tipped PSG’s rising star Desire Doue as a future Ballon d’Or contender, putting him in the same conversation as Barcelona’s Lamine Yamal.
In a chat with NEKO Deportes, the Dutch legend said Doue has what it takes to rival Yamal for football’s top individual honor in the years ahead. Gullit’s comments come after watching both youngsters make major impacts for their clubs this season.
Despite PSG losing Kylian Mbappe last summer, Doue has stepped up impressively, helping the team retain their Ligue 1 crown. The 19-year-old has racked up 13 goals and 12 assists in 47 appearances so far, becoming a key figure in the French side’s attack.
With PSG already holding a slim lead over Arsenal after a 1-0 win in the Champions League semi-final first leg, another strong performance from Doue could raise his profile even higher—especially if they go on to lift the trophy.
Asked who besides Yamal could dominate the Ballon d’Or race over the next decade, Gullit replied, “That’s a tough one… but I really like Doue. He’s young, talented—it could be him.”
Coventry City manager, Frank Lampard, speaks on team player and states how the player’s stance will help the team get into the Premier League.
The player is revealed to be Onyeka who he spoke about in the recent interview.
“He brings a different quality and probably a different profile to the midfield players we have.
“As I say, the profile is slightly different and I think that helps us in terms of the options and the competition in the middle of the park for us.”
Arsenal coach, Mikel Arteta, after their last match, shares an update on the injured team members after their last match.
He shared an update on Saka and stated that he is doing better after going through a hip injury. “His hip is improving a lot. Hopefully, he’ll be ready soon.”
He added about the other team members: “Martin is getting better and will be back in a few days, and Jurrien is fit for the weekend.”
Super Eagles footballer, Alex Iwobi, speaks on the World Cup and reveals their hope to play in the 2026 World Cup.
He shared that the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is hopeful about hearing from them after they submitted a petition against the Democratic Republic of Congo.
“I mean we’re still waiting, well hopefully we can go to the World Cup, but I feel it’s a tough one.
“It’s a tough one because winning AFCON is like… It’s a great legacy, it’s a great thing to have in your career, a memorable moment. But then at the same time, because I’ve been to the World Cup already, a lot of the players haven’t been.”
