Warren Zaire-Emery is on cloud nine. Author of 5 assists and 2 goals in 13 matches in all competitions in this 2023-2024 financial year, the young Parisian midfielder, aged 17, never ceases to impress. Friday evening, at the Parc des Princes, the native of Montreuil once again stood out from the crowd by scoring the second Parisian goal. At the conclusion of a superb collective movement, the international Espoirs, perfectly served by Ousmane Dembélé, left Benjamin Lecomte (58th) no chance. Great architect of the Parisian success (3-0) against the MHSC, the one who sees his contract run until June 2025 confirms, moreover, his sparkling form of the moment.
Decisive in his last five matches with PSG!
Already a scorer during the previous day on the pitch at Stade Brestois (3-2), Warren Zaire-Emery, credited with a 7 by the FM editorial team, has been decisive in his last five appearances with PSG. A passer at Newcastle despite the slap received by the Magpies (1-4), he also enjoyed a performance against AC Milan (3-0) in the Champions League by delivering two offerings. On October 8, he was also valuable with an assist during the victory (3-1) against Stade Rennais. A breathtaking performance for the one who beats, weekend after weekend, precocity records and already seems to be hovering over the debates in the big leagues.
Praised for several weeks for its considerable contribution to the midfield, WZE – which has once again performed very seriously in this sector against the Héraultais – is at the same time in the process of broadening its palette by showing great promise against to goal. Impactful, astonishingly mature and constantly carried forward, the darling of the Parc des Princes then continues its rapid rise. Replaced by Fabian Ruiz in the second period (78th) and given a standing ovation by the Parisian public, the player trained at the club was able to verify his growing popularity during this evening. Definitely under the spell of their Titi, the Ile-de-France supporters did not hesitate for a second to sing in the glory of their nugget. Regularly praised by his coach Luis Enrique, Zaire-Emery this time received the praise of a certain Milan Skriniar, present in the mixed zone at the end of the meeting.

The Blues in their sights…
“I think we had a good match. We scored, we won, we must continue like this. We work every day to be first, even if Nice plays tomorrow (Sunday, editor’s note). We analyzed the Newcastle match. We continue to work to improve. We have high-class offensive players. Warren (Zaire-Emery) is an incredible player, he is very young, Kang-In Lee too”, assured the 28-year-old Slovak defender in particular. One thing is certain, with this new successful performance, the 1m78 right-hander confirms, more than ever, his new status in the Parisian collective. A good omen, too, a few days before Didier Deschamps’ Blues list. Thursday afternoon, the French coach will announce his group for the two matches of the France A team against Gibraltar and Greece.
A list in which Warren Zaire-Emery could then, legitimately, appear for the first time, moreover after the withdrawal of Aurélien Tchouameni, absent for several weeks. Asked about this, Luis Enrique did not miss the opportunity to send a message to the French technician. If I were coach of the Spanish team, I would select Warren every time. But I am not a French or Spanish coach. It was Galtier who discovered it and I continue to play it. He is exemplary and incredible and I thank PSG for having such a young player. He’s a good example, he works every day in training and outside for his studies. He is an example on and off the field. While waiting for his possible first call-up, Warren Zaire-Emery will be keen to make a little more impact during the return clash against AC Milan on Tuesday evening in the Champions League.
