Raw, Frank, and Unfiltered: Doué's Stunning Slay in Bayern's Backyard
- Hey there!*
Désiré Doué, the 19-year-old footballing phenom, stole the show in the Champions League final, leaving FC Bayern with a bitter taste of what could have been. Playing a crucial role in Paris Saint-Germain's 5-0 demolition of Inter Milan in Munich, Doué was the man of the match - a title that might have gone to a Bayern player if things had turned out differently.
"Man, I can't even describe it. It's fucking unreal," gushed Doué, good-naturedly cursing as he brandished the player of the match trophy on the podium. "We just rewrote history for the club, France, and European football!"
It's true. The kid's got talent, and the tough game certainly raised his profile even further. Despite some room for improvement among the players, Doué remains humble, promising, "We're still learning, man, and I'm right there with 'em."
Were Karl-Heinz Rummenigge and Uli Hoeneß reminiscing about the mighty display by PSG in their own stadium? Or were they discussing Doué, the man Bayern reportedly wanted last year but missed out on? We'll never know.
The media reported that Doué spurned Bayern Munich to join PSG, lured by a lucrative contract worth €50 to €60 million. The club backed by Qatari money made the offer he couldn't refuse, giving him the opportunity to be part of an attack-minded system under Luis Enrique.
Doué's next gig is fast approaching. His sparkling performance in the final could catapult him to even bigger fame. No doubt, coach Luis Enrique played a significant part in his success.
"It ain't always easy to get young 'uns into such a big club like Paris," admitted Enrique. "But Desiré's got what it takes, and he's shown that."
If Enrique had his way, he'd put Doué in the running for the Ballon d'Or. But he thinks it should go to Ousmane Dembélé, who demonstrated exceptional leadership in the final with his defensive skills.
Doué expressed gratitude towards Enrique for his guidance. "He's been here for two years, writing history for the club. He's an incredible tactician, mentally strong, and he's an amazing person to work with."
The teen also shared that he and Enrique will be celebrating their victory, but details are under wraps. One thing's for sure: he'll be celebrating again soon, possibly on his 20th birthday, just three days after the final!
