Desire Doue hailed Paris Saint-Germain’s Champions League triumph and insisted their next step is to become even better.
PSG won their maiden European crown on Saturday night as they thrashed Inter Milan 5-0 in Munich — the largest margin of victory in the final in the competition’s 70-year history.
Doue, who does not turn 20 until next week, scored two goals and assisted a third on a memorable night. He joined the club last summer from Rennes for £42million.
Victory for PSG sealed the treble after they enjoyed a similarly successful season domestically, winning both Ligue 1 and the Coupe de France.
“I’m on top of a cloud and maybe I need to pinch myself,” he said after the match, with the man-of-the-match award placed in front of him.
“This is my first season here at PSG and this was a dream of mine. It is just wonderful.
“I think we’ve shown we are a great team across the board. We’ve got lots of very versatile players that can move around in different positions. That is one of our strengths.
“It was a great team effort this evening. We have a lot of young players, players who still need to develop — and I’m one of those players.”
Looking to the future, and with the Club World Cup just a fortnight away, Doue added: “We are always going to strive to get better. We’ll continue to win the best trophies out there.
“Thank you to all of our fans who were here this evening. And thank you to all of the PSG supporters in Paris and around the world.”
