Gessime Yassine has established a clear lead at the top of Ligue 1’s dribbling standings, with the RC Strasbourg winger completing 30 successful dribbles, according to statistics presented by Ligue 1.

The figure underlines Yassine’s ability to beat opponents in one-on-one situations and unsettle defences with his close control, acceleration and confidence in tight spaces.

Yassine is already being recognised as one of the most difficult players to contain in the French top flight. His total is 12 more than that of his nearest challenger, Amine Sbai of Angers SCO, who has completed 18 successful dribbles.

Desire Doue and Lamine Sy share third place on 17 successful dribbles. Doue, the Paris Saint-Germain forward, has continued to demonstrate his attacking instincts and ability to eliminate defenders, while Lamine Sy has produced the same total for AJ Auxerre.

Amine Harit of Olympique de Marseille is next on 16, level with another AJ Auxerre player, Kevin Danois.

Romain Faivre, also of AJ Auxerre, has completed 15 successful dribbles. He is joined on that figure by Simon Ebonog of Le Havre AC.

Arsene Kouassi, with 14 successful dribbles for FC Lorient, and Le Havre AC player Djibril Ouziad complete the top 10.

Ligue 1’s leading dribblers

| Position | Player | Club | Successful dribbles | ||||:| | 1 | Gessime Yassine | Strasbourg | 30 | | 2 | Amine Sbai | Angers SCO | 18 | | 3 | Desire Doue | Paris Saint-Germain | 17 | | 4 | Lamine Sy | AJ Auxerre | 17 | | 5 | Amine Harit | Olympique de Marseille | 16 | | 6 | Kevin Danois | AJ Auxerre | 16 | | 7 | Romain Faivre | AJ Auxerre | 15 | | 8 | Simon Ebonog | Le Havre AC | 15 | | 9 | Arsene Kouassi | FC Lorient | 14 | | 10 | Djibril Ouziad | Le Havre AC | 14 |

Yassine’s 30 successful dribbles give him a substantial advantage over the rest of the field. He has completed 12 more than Sbai and is close to doubling the totals recorded by several other players in the ranking.

The statistic highlights one of the defining features of his game: the ability to take on opponents, create space and open up defensive structures. In a league where room to operate is often limited, the young Strasbourg winger has emerged as one of the most effective players in individual duels.

With the current standings placing him so far ahead, Yassine has made an early claim to being Ligue 1’s leading dribbler.
