I believe that Ousmanes recent racist video in a hotel room should be added to "Personal Life" as a controversy, there are multiple sources that are reporting this as of this morning, and the video is being spread around. Listen elegant (talk) 17:23, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed a mistake on his private life section. He married in december last year, not in 2019 according to the sources. Vince sgg (talk) 15:57, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ousmane Dembele is being used as a false 9, so not as a true striker. So I think you guys should change it to list him as a forward rather than as a striker. Also include that Dembele is playing as a false 9 rather than a striker too in Dembeles profile. Chipchapperz (talk) 18:59, 11 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Proof that Dembele is being used as a false 9, not as a traditional striker. So I think you guys should list Dembele as a "forward" like you do with Mbappe rather than as a striker

www.theguardian.com/football/2025/feb/15/ousmane-dembele-paris-saint-germain-barcelona-football

all of them show that dembele is playing as a false 9. So I think this: His clinical finishing and eye for goal also allow him to be deployed in a more offensive role as a striker. Dembélé also has great quality in terms of his shooting ability from distance

should be changed to this His clinical finishing, eye for goal and playmaking also allow him to be deployed in a more offensive role as a false 9, where he drops deep to receive the ball and progress the attack. Dembélé also has great quality in terms of his shooting ability from distance.

Dembele did this for his goal against Liverpool and Arsenal, for example. He is heavily involved in build-up. Chipchapperz (talk) 19:13, 11 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
