PARIS: Paris Saint-Germain travel to Reims on Saturday in a top-of-the-table showdown, providing the perfect setting for Warren Zaire-Emery to stake a claim for a starting berth with France. On Thursday, the 17-year-old was called up by Didier Deschamps to the French senior side for the next round of internationals on November 18 and 21. The captain of the French under-21 side has been the undeniable break-out star of Ligue 1 this term, making his name one of the first on Luis Enrique's team sheet for every match. Should the PSG midfield dynamo feature against Gibraltar or Greece, he will become the youngest French international since before World War I. As Zaire-Emery has matured, so have PSG come into fine form in Ligue 1 in recent weeks and they go into the weekend one point off top with four victories in their last five outings.
