We know more about the injury to Warren Zaire-Emery, injured in the ankle during the Blues’ success against Gibraltar (14-0), Saturday evening in Nice, as part of the Euro 2024 qualifiers.

Warren Zaire-Emery went through all the emotions. Established by Didier Deschamps during France’s historic victory over Gibraltar (14-0), Saturday evening in Nice, at only 17 years, 8 months and 10 days – a record for precocity since 1914 -, the PSG midfielder only needed 16 minutes to score his first goal with the Blues. Yes, but there you have it, on this same action, the native of Montreuil had his right ankle violently tackled, thus giving up his place in the process.

Returning to the locker room limping, supported by two members of staff, Warren Zaire-Emery went to the hospital to carry out examinations. Examinations which revealed no fracture, indicated Didier Deschamps after the match.

“There’s a pretty big sprain”

“From the information I have, the examination is reassuring, there is no fracture but there is a pretty big sprain, confided the French coach to the microphone of TF1. This concern is at least already put aside because it existed at the time and when we see the act of incredible violence again. I prefer that he remembers his first selection for his first goal than for other more negative reasons. That’s what he did, but it ended sooner than expected. I hope it won’t be too long for him. »

According to Infosport + journalist Louis Vix, the little Parisian prodigy will remain away from the field for 15 days. WZE should therefore miss the Monaco reception on Friday evening, but also that of Newcastle next Tuesday. Very bad news for PSG.
