Warren Zaïre-Emery (born 8 March 2006) is a French footballer who plays as a midfielder for Paris Saint-Germain.
Early life
Warren Zaïre-Emery was born in Montreuil, growing up in Île-de-France. His father was also a footballer, having played with the Red Star in Seine-Saint-Denis.
Warren started playing at Aubervilliers as a 4 years old, having to wait a year just to be old enough to take his first license there.
Club career
Already a standout player in Aubervilliers, Zaïre-Emery was quickly scouted by Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), signing with the club from the capital in 2014.
In the Paris youth system, Zaïre-Emery always played in categories above his age, impressing his coaches at all levels. During the 2021–22 season, as he had only turned 15, he was the youngest player of the under-19 squad. Despite his young age, Zaïre-Emery still managed to become a key player of the U19s, most notably in December 2021, when he was the standout performer of PSG in the UEFA Youth League: during the last group stage game, the midfielder helped his team to a 3–2 home win against Club Bruges with a goal and an assist—despite going into half-time with a 0–2 deficit—, narrowly qualifying his team directly to the round of 16.
Still aged only 15, he was called by Mauricio Pochettino to the first team that season. Attracting the attention of several other big European clubs while still yet to sign his first professional contract with Paris, he joined Jorge Mendes's agency in March 2022.
International career
Of Martiniquais descent, Zaïre-Emery is a French youth international. In April 2022, he was selected with France under-17 team for the Euro 2022. With this 2005 generation, he was the only 2006-born player of that squad.
Style of play
A defensive midfielder with a decent physique and remarkable technical abilities, Zaïre-Emery is both good at winning the ball and launching the plays, providing structure to its team plays, giving balance to the midfield.
Good at reading the game, he is described as a player with a very mature personality on the pitch while still in his teenage years, able to often take his responsibilities but still maintaining a calm and disciplined attitude.
