Overview

• On October 12, 2025, Ousmane Dembélé presented his 2025 Ballon d'Or in Évreux's town-hall square.
• Mayor Guy Lefrand awarded him the city's medal and praised his example for local youth.
• Crowd estimates ranged from roughly 3,000 to 5,000, with supporters waiting hours to see the trophy.
• Dembélé then visited Stade Mathieu Bodmer in La Madeleine, where many children from the local club turned out.
• A planned lap of honor at the stadium was cut short as security was overwhelmed by eager youngsters; the 2018 World Cup winner, crowned on September 22 as France's sixth Ballon d'Or recipient, thanked residents and is currently convalescing and out of the France squad.
