He has not left the starting lineup since September 17, 2025. In the space of half a season, Warren Zaire-Emery has become essential in Luis Enrique’s team, one of the centerpieces that it is impossible to do without. With an average rating of 6.68/10, the midfielder was elected Paris Saint-Germain player of the month, according to the ratings given by Le Parisien reporters.
Without being sparkling, the Titi Parisien has demonstrated extraordinary regularity since the start of 2026, continuing his first part of the season. In the absence of Achraf Hakimi, who left to play the CAN with Morocco, the French international was chosen by his coach to act as right back.
Clean defensively and fairly neutral offensively, he was initially discreet against Paris FC and against Marseille (rated 5/10), before acquiring ease over the matches. During the second round against the PFC, Zaire-Emery was more offensive on his right side. Despite the elimination of PSG in the Coupe de France at the final whistle, he was the best Parisian on the pitch (rated 6/10).
He celebrated his 100th match in Ligue 1
Against Lille, the native of Montreuil did his job, without shining, before being placed back in the middle after the break and consolidating the foundation of his team at the heart of the game (rated 6/10). In the Champions League, “WZE” made an impact against Sporting Portugal and once again stood out despite a disallowed goal and the defeat of its team (rated 6/10).
For his 100th match in Ligue 1 at almost 20 years old, against Auxerre, the Ile-de-France player won in each of his duels, but made several restart errors which could have cost his team the match (rated 5/10). He took advantage of the return of Achraf Hakimi to regain his position in midfield against Newcastle in C1 and delivered a convincing performance alongside Vitinha and João Neves (rated 6/10).
Performances that come at the right time almost four months before the 2026 World Cup, and no one doubts that Didier Deschamps sees very favorably the new versatility of the Parisian jewel. The Blues coach has always taken a liking to attempting replacements on the pitch, like Blaise Matuidi positioned on the left in 2018 or Adrien Rabiot used as a full-back in 2021. Warren Zaire-Emery in any case seems to be picking up valuable points in the run-up to the American World Cup.
To complete the top 5, we find Vitinha (6.63), who is hot on the heels of his young teammate. The Portuguese midfielder is followed by Willian Pacho (6.39) and Nuno Mendes (6.29). Finally, Lucas Chevalier completes this quinté (6.27).
