Pedretti: Dembele won the "Ballon d'Or"

Former France national team player Benoît Pedretti considers it good news that his compatriot Ousmane Dembele has won the Ballon d'Or award. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

He expressed this opinion in an exclusive interview with the online publication "Euro-Football.Ru". According to Pedretti, this news is of great importance for French football and the country's league.

In his view, it is a rare event for a player representing a French club to win the Ballon d'Or. The last time such an award was received by a French player was Karim Benzema, when he played for Real Madrid, Pedretti said.

"At the ceremony held in Paris on September 22, PSG forward Ousmane Dembele was awarded the Ballon d'Or. In the final stage, he surpassed Lamin Yamal and Vitinha," Pedretti announced.

This victory is a great achievement for French football and confirms that the country's football is at a high level on the world stage.
