Baticle hails Zaïre-Emery, the driving force of the U21s | OneFootball

Warren Zaïre-Emery (19), Paris Saint-Germain midfielder, continues to impress in the France U21 shirt. Speaking to RMC Sport, head coach Gérald Baticle praised his captain’s influence and tactical intelligence, calling him a central figure in France’s play and a symbol of an ambitious generation.

Warren Zaïre-Emery’s return to the U21s is anything but a step backward. On the contrary, it proves a rare intelligence in a game where ego often takes over. At 19, the Paris Saint-Germain midfielder has already tasted the France senior team, but he accepted without hesitation to come back and lend a hand to Gérald Baticle’s side. This choice shows remarkable maturity: that of a player who understands that every minute on the pitch, no matter the shirt, fuels his development. He has lost none of his qualities — work rate, technical precision, team spirit — but has added a dimension of leadership and humility. Zaïre-Emery doesn’t play for his image; he plays to learn, to pass on, and to win. This attitude, clear-sighted and rare at his age, only strengthens the idea that he is destined for a central role in the future of PSG and Les Bleus.
