PSG, after all, lost to Chelsea by a 0-3 scoreline, and Dembele had a night to forget in the United States.
The Frenchman, in fact, played a big role in the event for PSG . He played two games as a starter and four games in all during the event but his performance in the final did not earn him any favours.
Dembele is indeed still a serious favourite to win the award, for he won the UEFA Champions League, the Ligue 1, the French Super Cup and the French Cup and scored 35 goals and provided 15 assists for his club last season.

He won the domestic treble with Barcelona, and also scored 18 goals and provided 25 assists for the Catalans.
