Manchester United Are Eyeing A Move For This Paris Saint-Germain Midfielder: Good Choice For Amorim? | OneFootball

In a recent report, journalist Rudy Galetti mentioned that Manchester United are eyeing a move for Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Warren Zaire-Emery. It has been revealed that the Red Devils are eager to get a deal done for the French talent this summer.

Zaire-Emery’s Impressive Run Of Form In Ligue 1

Zaire-Emery enjoyed a decent campaign at the French club after he put in a string of impressive displays for them at the centre of the park. The 19-year-old made 48 appearances for PSG last season, scoring three times and earning two assists in all competitions.

The talented midfielder did well to make 51 tackles, 35 blocks and 23 interceptions in Ligue 1. He was even accurate when distributing possession from midfield based on his pass completion rate of 92.8% in the French top tier (stats via fbref.com).

Zaire-Emery is under contract at the French club until the summer of 2029 which could make it difficult for the Red Devils to sign him on the cheap in this transfer window.

Will Zaire-Emery A Good Choice For Manchester United Boss Ruben Amorim?

Zaire-Emery is a tough-tackling midfielder who can scan the danger well to earn the ball back for his team inside his half. He usually clears his lines when the opposition are on the front foot and is an accurate passer of the ball.

The French sensation can even chip in by scoring and creating a few important goals for his team. However, the jury is still out on whether he can cope with the physicality and high intensity of the Premier League.

We can expect Zaire-Emery to add more bite and steel to Man United boss Ruben Amorim’s midfield. He is good enough to compete for a regular first-team spot at the Mancunian club next season.

At 19, Zaire-Emery has got a bright future ahead of him which makes him an excellent choice for the Red Devils to pursue this off-season. However, Amorim has to be patient with his progress before he can get the best out of the gifted talent. All in all, Man United would do well to get a deal over the line for him in this summer transfer period.
