Former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger admits he's a fan of PSG midfielder Warren Zaire-Emery.

The youngster attracted a major offer from Manchester City over the summer, but ultimately stayed in Paris.

Asked about the midfielder, Wenger told Le Parisien: "He has something of the power of Paul Pogba, but he also has points in common with N'Golo Kant in this ability to recover balls. Zaire-Emery is a bit of a mix between the two, a combination of the two 2018 world champions.

"With his ability to win duels without making mistakes and to project himself forward, making people appreciate his great vision of the game.

"He has a bit of Patrick Vieira too. A box to box midfielder as the English say."
