Désiré Doué, of course… Tuttosport has confirmed the obvious: the young attacking midfielder from PSG has been crowned the best European player under 21.
Désiré Doué wins the prestigious Golden Boy 2025! “The international jury had no hesitation,” emphasizes the Italian daily, which speaks of a “remarkable year” for the French player, currently sidelined until the end of the year.
It must be said that Doué’s second half of the season has been incredible. Upon his arrival at PSG, he was rather shy, but he has become indispensable in Paris as the year has progressed. And in a grand finale, he delivered a splendid Champions League match against Inter: two goals, one assist, and a 5-0 victory as a signature. All of this in a season that concluded with 16 goals and 16 assists in 61 matches. For a debut season, it’s hard to do better.
Doué like Mbappé
The competitors were therefore left behind (Huijsen, Yildiz, Cubarsi, Güler, Estêvão, Mora). At PSG, two other players were on the list: Warren Zaïre-Emery and Senny Mayulu.
With this Golden Boy, Désiré Doué becomes the first French player to be honored since Kylian Mbappé in 2017. He joins an already legendary lineage alongside Yamal, Bellingham, Gavi, Pedri, and Haaland. The future belongs to him more than ever.
