Zaïre-Emery ranked third-best young player in Europe! | OneFootball

Warren Zaïre-Emery (18 years old, midfielder, Paris Saint-Germain) continues to make a mark. According to the CIES Football Observatory, he ranks on the podium of the most performing players under 20 in 2025, behind Barcelona's Lamine Yamal (17 years old) and Pau Cubarsí (17 years old).

The CIES, renowned for its sharp statistical analyses, established its ranking by crossing two indices: performance and experience. On these criteria, Warren Zaïre-Emery displays an average of 87.8/100, a remarkable score that reflects his consistency despite fierce competition at Paris Saint-Germain. Behind Lamine Yamal and Pau Cubarsí, he confirms that he already belongs to the elite of his generation.

This result is all the more significant as he has not always benefited from maximum playing time this season, with Luis Enrique alternating his midfield choices with Vitinha (24 years old), Fabian Ruiz (29 years old) or João Neves (20 years old). But his impact remains visible: defensive activity, volume of play, rare maturity. For PSG, seeing their Titi established in such a ranking is a strong signal: beyond Mbappé and the stars, the club can also project with one of the most complete young midfielders in Europe.
