Could Désiré Doué ascend to superstar status this season with PSG?

The 2026-2027 season will see Paris Saint-Germain fight to keep their European crown and lift a third consecutive Champions League title. In each of their last two campaigns, Luis Enrique's team managed to shine through their incredible collective while being lifted by top-level individualities in the most important moments.

Players such as Gianluigi Donnarumma, Ousmane Dembélé, Vitinha and Pacho played key roles in the first triumph while Khvicha Kvaratskhelia became a true superstar throughout the 2025-2026 Champions League campaign that saw the Parisians win the competition back-to-back.

This season the new superstar of this team could be named Désiré Doué. The Frenchman has made a name for himself in the first two victorious campaigns, becoming the 2025 Golden Boy on the way. However, he is yet to become a true superstar that can change games in the blink of an eye when his team needs him the most.

This 2026-2027 campaign could be the perfect opportunity for him as Paris aims for a legendary third consecutive Champions League campaign. His last outing with Zinedine Zidane's France team and his general performances in this international window proved that he is on the path.

Can Désiré Doué become a real superstar with PSG this season?

The start of his season has been quite difficult as he had little to no rest following a long 2025-2026 campaign, concluded with the World Cup, which saw Luis Enrique's team struggle to find a solid form in Ligue 1, which certainly left some fans worried. However, in the last international window with France the Frenchman delivered several top level performances.

Following Kylian Mbappé's injury, Doué was promoted in the starting lineup, in a left winger role and his partnership with Olise, Dembélé and Cherki was explosive as they showed in the last clash against Belgium that saw France come from behind to defeat their rival 4-1.

The 21-year-old came on at the 72th minute and tied the game just five minutes later, before delivering two superb assists to Michael Olise in the last five minutes of the game.

For Paris Saint-Germain to win their third consecutive Champions League title, they will definitely need one of their players to step up to the plate and lead them to the promised land and this player could be Désiré Doué who is now just waiting to blow and show his true potential every week in Ligue 1 and with the national team.
