Dembélé’s Remarkable Goal-Scoring Run Leaves Luis Enrique Bewildered

Ousmane Dembélé, the 27-year-old French forward, has been setting the football world ablaze with his recent goal-scoring exploits. Once criticized for his lack of finishing, Dembélé has transformed into a prolific scorer since the beginning of 2025.

The statistics are truly impressive: 15 goals in just eight matches, with 10 of those coming in the last 18 days. Dembélé has already notched up 23 goals this season, a significant improvement from his six-goal tally last year. This performance even surpasses his personal best of 14 goals achieved during the 2018/19 season with Barcelona.

In Paris Saint-Germain’s recent UEFA Champions League play-off first leg against Stade Brestois, Dembélé continued his hot streak by scoring twice. The Parisian club now holds a comfortable 3-0 lead heading into the second leg at Parc des Princes.

PSG manager Luis Enrique, struggling to explain Dembélé’s sudden goal-scoring prowess, humorously remarked, “If you see Ousmane, you should ask him what he had for Christmas dinner! We see him in training, and right now, he’s brimming with confidence.”
