Warren Zaire-Emery will have experienced an express emergence. Launched into the professional bath at just 16 years old, the young midfielder became a starter at PSG after only a few months and moved to the French team immediately, where he nevertheless most often had to make do with a substitute status. It is different in the capital where he has established himself as one of the faces of the new Parisian project.

Nuno Mendes may be jealous of Zaire-Emery
Asked about Nuno Mendes’ desires to leave, at the end of his contract in June 2026, the former CFC polemicist indeed mentioned the case of the young Parisian midfielder. “Nuno Mendes has a very small contract at PSG level. Indeed, he wants to be revalued in a strong way and he is right. Because when he sees the salary that was sent to Warren Zaire-Emery, he must rightly estimate that there is no reason why it should not be greatly increased.he confided in a video “Face à Pierrot”.
However, money would not be the only motivation for the young Portuguese full-back. “I also think, even if it has changed in recent matches, that the way Luis Enrique made him play, almost like a third central back, did not suit him at all. I think he also wants guarantees at this level”he added.
