Ousmane Dembele named France's best player for the second year in a row

Paris Saint-Germain star Ousmane Dembele was crowned France's best player for the second year in a row at the annual ceremony held at the Brunier Palace in Paris on Monday.

Dembele helped PSG reach the Champions League final for the second time in a row and played an important role in bringing his team closer to winning the French league title this season.

Meanwhile, Lens coach Pierre Sage won the best coach award, beating Paris Saint-Germain's Luis Enrique after leading his team to the league title and qualifying for the French Cup final on May 22  against Nice.

Bayern Munich star Michael Ulysses was named the best French professional player abroad for his brilliant season with the Bavarian side and his contribution to winning the league title and reaching the cup final against Stuttgart on May 23.

Paris Saint-Germain's 20-year-old Désirée Doré won the Young Player of the Year award for the second season in a row, ahead of teammates Joao Neves, Warren-Zaire Emery, Ayoub Bouadi (Lille) and Valentin Barco (Strasbourg).

The Parisian won the award in 2025, becoming the third player to hold it after Belgium's Eden Hazard (2009, 2010) and Kylian Mbappe (2017, 2018, 2019).
