Clean sheets

2.46 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 14 clean sheets across 32 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 85.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.26 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 90/100).
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 20 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 94.3, Zaïre-Emery carries the 1st-highest potential of the full-backs in the Ligue 1 (top 2%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.46 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 20, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
