  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  Labelled as The Robot by his Paris Saint-Germain teammates for his dedication to football, Zaire-Emery has been in incredible form under Luis Enrique, boasting two goals and five assists for the Parisians across all competitions. However, the youngster insisted that he takes his studies very seriously and doesn't idle away his time when he is at home.

  "When I go home, I don't just sit around, play games, or hang out outside. I don't think that's good for me," he added. However, he admitted that he does find the extra media attention flattering: "According to my family, sometimes there is a bit too much talk about me, but I find it flattering. I feel good and am at ease."
