At 20 years of age, Dembele has played a total of seven games with the French national side alongside Barça players Samuel Umtiti and Lucas Digne. Last season Dembélé scored 10 goals in 49 matches aside from being third on list of players with most assists in Europe with 20 in all competitions. Without a doubt, he is a hugely talented player, one of the best on the continent.
