Egyptian football icon Wael Gomaa surprised fans by excluding Mohamed Salah from his Ballon d’or picks instead naming Ousmane Dembele as the best player in the world this season.

Gomaa’s Bold Choice

Speaking on beIN Sports during Super cup clash between Paris Saint Germain & Tottenham, Gomaa praised PSG’s setup:

"A deserved victory and credit to the management for trusting coach who understands winning and knows how to bring out the best in every player"

Why Dembele Over Salah?

Gomaa added that Dembele’s "sensational season" made him the clear favourite for the award noting his transformation since leaving Barcelona.

The winger fired PSG to every possible trophy including the Champions league delivering 35 goal & 16 assist.
