Didier Deschamps has presented Warren-Zaire Emery from PSG with his first international call for the upcoming Euro 2024 qualifiers.
The 17-year-old has had a stellar season with the Paris team and has often found himself in the first squad, despite fierce competition in midfield.
He has bagged two goals and two assists in 10 league appearances and had a enormous impact in the 3-0 win over AC Milan, finishing the game with 2 assists.

“He’s here with us because he’s got what it takes to perform at the very highest level, even if there is competition at his position,” Deschamps said. “What he is capable of achieving with his club at such a young age shows an enormous potential and maturity.”
France will play against Greece and Gibraltar as the 2018 World Champions have secured a spot in the 2024 Euros with a perfect win-rate of six wins in the first six matches.
