The PSG steering committee managed to secure Warren Zaire-Emery (18 years old) last April until 2029. A few months later, João Neves (20 years old) signed for Paris Saint-Germain. Enough to predict good days for the Parisian midfielder who is already one of the best in the world according to Jorge Mendes.
From his first steps on the sidelines of the PSG and training at Campus PSG in the summer of 2023, Luis Enrique had immediately detected the talent for polishing of Warren Zaire–Emery. In the mind of the Spanish coach, it was quite simple: the midfielder, currently 18 years old and who signed a contract extension until June 2029, is a “diamond in the rough”.

But that's not all. The football advisor that is Luis Camposand who works in concert with Luis Enrique on the transfer market, also offered another midfield nugget to the Spanish technician: João Neves. The 20-year-old Portuguese international arrived last August from Benfica Lisbon for €70M, bonus included.
“Warren Zaire-Emery and João Neves are currently among the best midfielders in the world”
In interview for Tuttosportfamous agent Jorge Mendes was full of praise for Warren Zaire–Emery et João Neves. “Warren Zaire-Emery and João Neves, although they are both very young, are currently among the best midfielders in the world and they are proving it at PSG”. Paris Saint-Germain therefore offered itself for only €70 million, given the fact that Zaire–Emery was trained at the club, two pillars of its midfield.
