Dembélé Becomes Third Muslim to Win Ballon d’Or
————————-
Ousmane Dembélé, French star of Paris Saint-Germain, has won the 2025 Ballon d’Or, becoming the third Muslim footballer in history to receive the prestigious award.

According to France 24 cited cy the Shia Waves Agency, Dembélé’s outstanding performance last season — scoring 35 goals and providing 16 assists — cemented his place among Europe’s elite players and earned him the honor.

He follows in the footsteps of previous Muslim winners, including Karim Benzema, who famously upheld his personal and religious values while playing for France.

The achievement is seen as an inspiration for a new generation of Muslim footballers worldwide.
