France's head coach Zinedine Zidane did not hide the fact that as a football player, he would have liked to play with his current protégé Rayan Cherki:

"When I was a player, I really wanted to play with a player like R. Cherki.

He finds incredible passes and even knows how to play without the ball...

He is a very good footballer.”

23-year-old Rayan Cherki has scored four goals in eight matches this season.

He has been playing for the France national team since last year.
