Tomorrow evening, Paris Saint-Germain will challenge FC Barcelona in their home Parc des Princes for the quarter-final first leg of the Champions League. A match for which Luis Enrique will surely count on his young talent Warren Zaire-Emery (18 years old). Preserved against Clermont, the midfielder has recovered from the crutch received in the Coupe de France semi-final against Rennes (1-0). Having become an indisputable starter this season for the Rouge et Bleu, the French international (2 caps, 1 goal) could also help out again as right-back against the Blaugranas, due to the suspension of Achraf Hakimi.

But if WZE remains an unstoppable starter for Luis Enrique, many have noted that the young Parisian shines less than at the start of the season. Less sharp, Zaire-Emery breaks the lines much less with his breakthroughs with the ball and seems to have a good burst of energy. In today’s edition, The Team claims, however, that the player privately indicates not feeling fatigue, while displaying the player’s less efficient statistics in the recovery sector. Is he used too much by his coach even though he is only 18 years old (he has played 35 matches in all competitions this season)? During the last gathering of the French team, the daily newspaper confirms that the Blues staff also noticed a form of physical and psychological fatigue.

WZE must digest
Moreover, after the defeat against Germany, Didier Deschamps clearly pointed out the difficult performance of his young protégé. “He’s a young player, he didn’t have his best game with us. It depends on him, but also on the players around him. Having playing time is important, even if I know that by making these choices, it can harm collective performance. The state of fatigue is important, but it can also happen to relax psychologically. Getting the machine back on takes time. Whether it is Warren or someone else, we have not managed to rise to the level of Germany. »

Became a starter at PSG at just 17 years old, called up by Didier Deschamps immediately, carried around by Luis Enrique between the middle and the right-back position, overexposed in the media: does Warren Zaire-Emery simply take time to digest this change radical status in his young career? “You don’t realize how much he had to manage ten thousand things at the same time this season”, an employee of the PSG training center told the newspaper. Because in addition to all these upheavals in his professional career, WZE is also preparing to pass the baccalaureate and his driving license, before perhaps continuing with a Euro. This is called having a busy schedule.
