87 ASPETAR MAGAZINE ATHLETE SPOTLIGHT Moussa Dembélé Al-Ettifaq French Striker Moussa Dembélé on His Road to Recovery at Aspetar (Interview conducted in 2025) Why are you here at the hospital? I’m here because I had an Achilles injury three months ago. I came here to receive treatment and ensure I return to my sport in good condition. What can you tell us about the services and facilities you've seen so far? To be fair, I've been here for a week, and I have no complaints about the services or what I've experienced since day one. Everything has been great. The people have been friendly, and I’ve enjoyed every single moment here so far. How does this facility compare to other sports medicine centres you've seen in your career? It's quite hard to compare because they've set the bar so high. It’s difficult to find any other rehab centre in the world that matches it. This place has been voted as the top of its kind, so I don't think there's any comparison for now. Finally, do you have a message for your fans? To all my fans, I just want to say thank you for all the support you give me every day. I read your messages and listen to your encouragement, but I try to stay quiet during my injury period because I need to focus on myself and make sure I come back in good shape. I have to say one thing: I will come back in good shape, just like nothing ever happened. Thank you so much, and all the best. Scan the QR code to watch more
