Summoned to the France group for the first time, Warren Zaire-Emery, 17, played the game at the press conference this Thursday.
Being the good student that he is, Warren Zaire-Emery could not fail his back-to-school oral exam. But not the French baccalaureate this time. It is in the shoes of a player of the French team that this young man of 17 years old was called to speak in public this Thursday. The Parisian prodigy had his first press conference with the A. And he didn’t miss his visit.
“ It’s a pleasure to be here with the A’s. I’m proud and happy to represent my country, I would give everything for France“, he said straight away, with the calm that characterizes him, while conceding that the media hubbub to which he is the subject does not leave his family indifferent.
“Studies help me keep a balance”
The neo-Bleu was especially called upon to express himself on this very unique period, where he must combine high-level sport with studies. “ Studies and football? I do my classes at the same time. Yesterday, I was doing my Spanish homework (laughs). I try to organize myself, when I have time, I do my homework, I do both at the same time as best as possible, alternating training and classes. It doesn’t cause me any problems, it helps me keep a balance. If I go home and do nothing, just play the console, I don’t think it’s better for me. My French baccalaureate? I did well. I got 10 oral and 12 written or the other way around I don’t know, so it’s okay…“.
