Daily Digest PSG: wages, Zaïre-Emery, Ruiz and Mbappé | OneFootball

This Saturday, February 7, the French press (on the sports side) focused on Paris Saint-Germain's wage bill evolution, the return to form of Warren Zaïre-Emery (19-year-old midfielder), the absence of Fabian Ruiz (29-year-old midfielder) for the match against Olympique de Marseille on Sunday, and Kylian Mbappé sending a bailiff to PSG.

PSG had indeed announced the "end of bling-bling." Some saw it as just talk, others as the end of great sports performances. In the end, Paris managed to change the rules for its salaries, attract very talented players, and build a team that wins the Champions League. It's a great success. Even though we shouldn't dismiss what was done before, which also helped to get here.

Zaïre-Emery is a fine example of determination and perspective when judging players. Many indicated that his career was already on the decline due to a difficult period. He had injuries, a change of status to digest, and confidence to regain. But the talent hadn't disappeared. By staying focused on work and the team, the Titi managed to return to the forefront and impress once again. It's not a surprise, but it is still commendable.

He could indeed be a real contender in the midfield once Achraf Hakimi (27-year-old right-back) returns (he is suspended against OM), even though the midfield trio has been impressive. It is currently missing Fabian Ruiz (29 years old). This shouldn't last, and the battle to play in the big matches will be fierce.
