July 10th, in the semi-finals of the Club World Cup, Paris Saint-Germain defeated Real Madrid 4-0 and successfully advanced to the final. Paris Saint-Germain player Fabian was interviewed after the game.

Fabian first said: "I think it's great, I'm going through the best moments of my career, at least one of the best moments. We just had an incredible season and we need to play a game to finish the season. On a personal level I'm so happy, and most importantly from the team level, I think we've had a great season and played really great football. The team is proving that they want to win all the trophys and we're only one final left ”

Fabian scored twice in this game, and he continued: “The Ballon d’Or is not up to me, but I will try my best. I am happy whenever I get nominated for such an important award, but my focus is not here. There are actually a lot of candidates, and Europe has very good players. If I get nominated, I hope I can win the award, but I know it’s very difficult. I didn’t think too much, I’m focusing on Sunday’s finals, and I think the most important thing is to end the season with this trophy.”

Fabian also praised his teammate Dembele: "The coach has always said that each of us must run actively and put pressure on our opponents. Dembele has been all in the first place, not only scored goals, but also did incredible work to help us put pressure on our opponents. Today everyone has seen that the first two goals came from his oppression, and he also scored the second goal himself. I think he has had a very good season and should be nominated for the Golden Globe. Hopefully he can bring us more in the final on Sunday. More contributions."

Mbappe left Paris Saint-Germain to join Real Madrid last summer. Finally, Fabian said: "We know Mbappe is a great player and any team wants to have him. We also know how important he is to Real Madrid and last season to us. We all know his strength, his efforts, his goals. But without him, we still focus on our work, we have a good season, and the new players have strengthened the team well, which is very important."
