In the last episode of the show The Bridgewhich brings together Aurélien Tchouaméni, Jules Koundé and Ousmane Dembélé, the Paris Saint-Germain player talks about his hobbies, his big matches or the human side of footballers, each time with a lot of humor.
Ousmane Dembélé has his own way of telling stories. In the last episode of the show The Bridge, co-presented by Aurélien Tchouaméni, he is one of the three guests with Jules Koundé, another player on the France team, and the comedian Thomas Ngijol. For almost 90 minutes, the discussion moves from one subject to another and Dembélé always has the right word to make people laugh.
When Tchouaméni talks about the daily life of footballers, the interim captain of the Blues assures: “Before being footballers, we are normal people.” Dembélé bounces back and immediately causes hilarity on the set, facing Thomas Ngijol: “We're like you actually, we poop, we pee.”
Same scenario when it comes to gamers' hobbies. Ousmane Dembélé then shares his interest in certain content. “I really like documentaries, on Arte, YouTube,” he explains. “I watch documentaries on the past, on the Second World War. I like watching what the dictators did: Mobutu, 'German… (laughs) I really like all that. I've always been interested in that.'
“When he arrived in a crop top and skirt, he won”
It is also a question of players who are “in the zone”, that is to say maximum success in a match. Dembélé has already experienced this: “I remember a match in Barcelona, against Real Sociedad. That match, I felt untouchable. Unplayable. Control, I passed all the time. You feel it on the pitch, on the first action, direct.”
But the player who played for Rennes, Dortmund and Barça, before PSG, also experienced the opposite effect: “It happened to me (during the warm-up) to change wings, left foot, right foot. said to myself, it smells good this evening, after 25 minutes, I handed it over to the full-back and I said go ahead, change sides. I'm not touching the ball today.
In the company of two of his teammates in the French team, including Jules Koundé whom he knew well in Barcelona, Ousmane Dembélé did not deprive himself of room either. Especially when it came to Koundé's clothing style. Asked if his teammate had limits in style, the Parisian spoke: “He exceeded the limits. For a long time. (…) When he arrived in a crop-top and a skirt, he had won.”
