Called up for the French team for the first time, Warren Zaire-Emery arrived this Monday at Clairefontaine. Impressive in the Paris Saint-Germain jersey since the start of the season, the protégé could thus experience his great first with the tricolor jersey. Present at a press conference a few days before challenging Gibraltar, as part of qualifying for Euro 2024, Didier Deschamps also revealed what he expected from the Parisian Titi.
“Whether he’s 17, 18, 19, he’s one of the young players. I’m not going to get any different treatment from him. The only thing is to have a little more indulgence. Let him be as he is, let him do things naturally, with confidence, freely. If he has to play, do the best possible for him and the team. There’s no need to put pressure on yourself. Let him stay himself. Potentially, he has everything you need”. Reassuring for the main person concerned, who will wear the number 8, usually worn by Aurélien Tchouaméni, on the occasion of this international gathering.
