After Paris Saint-Germain defeated Brest 1-0, O. Dembélé gave an interview to Ligue 1+ about assisting Ferran Torres once again. He said that the two of them have known each other well since their time at FC Barcelona.

First of all, starting the Ligue 1 season with a victory is very important. Considering the challenging schedule, does this win give you more confidence?

O. Dembélé said: "Yes, we've played three games now—sorry, three Ligue 1 matches—and they've all been difficult. Coming to Brest today and winning here is very important. We know they're a tough team to play against. This is my fourth year here, and matches against Brest have always been difficult. They play well and have a striker who holds the ball up very effectively, which creates a lot of problems for us. Today was a good match."

Ousmane, congratulations. Before you energize the fans for the French Classico that's coming up, we can see you're in excellent form right now—like a Ballon d'Or-level performance. So of course I have to bring this up. We get the sense that you're very calm and composed about all this and don't really speak about it much, while others are creating a buzz. Is this a strategy of yours?

O. Dembélé said: "No, I'm just like this naturally. You know, I'm someone who stays in the background and works quietly throughout my career. I don't speak about things. I just work hard. As I've said, I'm not someone special, but I'm very dedicated. Last year I had an excellent season with Paris Saint-Germain and I got rewarded for it. For this year, let's see. There's no pressure. We'll know when the time comes."

Of course, let's talk briefly about the French Classico coming up and get everyone excited.

O. Dembélé said: "Yes, that will be an important match. I still remember missing the game in Marseille last season—I was injured and also had the Ballon d'Or ceremony. Playing there is always special, whether it's at Parc des Princes or in Marseille. It feels incredible. The atmosphere there will be intense, and we can't wait for this match."

The chemistry between you and Ferran Torres—we didn't just discover it tonight, but now it's becoming increasingly clear. We want to revisit this goal with you and hear your analysis from your perspective, because it's really satisfying to see you play together. And you assisted Ferran again.

O. Dembélé said: "Yes, we've been close since our time at FC Barcelona. I played with him for about a year and a half to two years. He's a very versatile striker—he runs well, he's a real forward, a true number 9, and he can also play on the wing. It's easy to play with him. Honestly, his movement is excellent. Personally, I like to play through balls over the defense, so it's easy to find him. We also communicate frequently, so it's very easy to play with Ferran."
