The Les Bleus attacker has scored important goals for the Luis Enrique coached side, particularly those that came in the round of 16 against Liverpool.
Besides finding the back of the net with ease and creating numerous goal scoring opportunities, Dembele’s work rate has also caused a lot of problems for PSG’s opponents.
Dembele likely to make history with PSG
Should Dembele help PSG outclass Aston Villa, he will increase the chances of the club to lift the coveted Champions League trophy for the first time in history.
