Celebrity: Pogba is the number one star in Ligue 1. Before he came, he was Ash and Douai! Where is Dembele?

In the semi-finals of the 2025 Club World Cup, Real Madrid, the Champions League king, lost 0:4 to the new Champions League champion Paris. The 2025 Golden Globe Award is already something that Dembele can have. Mbappe, who missed the Club World Cup championship, is far from enough to compete for the Golden Ball Awards with the La Liga Golden Boots and European Golden Boots.

So, among the active players, has Dembele replaced Mbappe as the number one in France? Obviously not. In terms of star effect, Dembele is still quite far from Mbappe.

In the eyes of French legend Gala, Dembele is not even the number one player in Ligue 1 now.

Recently, when talking about the topic of "Is Pogba the number one star in Ligue 1?" Gala said: "Of course yes, otherwise who is it?"

Pogba, 32 years old, transferred from Le Havre U17 to Manchester United U18 in July 2009. In August 2012, Pogba turned to Juventus with his free agent. In the summer of 2016, Mourinho became Manchester United's new coach. Manchester United introduced Pogba from Juventus, with a transfer fee of up to 105 million euros. In July 2022, Pogba went to Juventus again with his free will. In August 2023, Pogba was banned because of a positive drug test. In December 2024, Juventus and Pogba saved money and Pogba became a free agent. In March 2025, Pogba ended his one-and-a-half ban. In July, Pogba joined the Ligue 1 giant Monaco.

In the French national team, Pogba, like Dembele, has won the 2018 World Cup. At the club, Dembele has a Champions League title, while Pogba only won the UEFA Cup during the Manchester United period.

Demberle's current value has risen to 90 million euros, and was only 30 million at the lowest level at Barcelona, ​​but it was also in Barcelona at its highest level, reaching 120 million.

Pogba's net worth once dropped to 0 during the suspension period, and now it has risen to 5 million euros. When he was at Manchester United in June 2019, it also reached 100 million euros.

Okay, Pogba is now the biggest star in Ligue 1! So what before Pogba joined Monaco? Gala said: "Who was the big star here before Pogba came? Maybe it was Ashraf, or Douai. But players of the level of Pogba joining Ligue 1 are very beneficial to the image of the league. We all know that everything in modern football is commercialized and everything is related to marketing."

According to Gala, not only Dembele, but also Mbappe, who had left Ligue 1 before, as well as Messi and Neymar, were ignored. Or in Gara's eyes, they are not as big as Pogba's card.
