Club career

Initially a youth player at AJN Bagnolet and Paris FC, Zague joined Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in 2019, entering the club's academy.[2] On 4 August 2023, it was announced that he had signed his first professional contract with PSG, which would take effect on 1 July 2024 and last until 30 June 2027.[3][4] During the 2023–24 season, he established himself as the captain of the PSG under-19s, under the direction of head coach Zoumana Camara.[5][6] On 6 April 2024, Zague made his professional and Ligue 1 debut for PSG in a 1–1 draw against Clermont, playing the full 90 minutes.[7][8][9] On his 18th birthday on 15 May, he scored his first goal for PSG in a 2–1 win over Nice.[10]

On 7 February 2025, Zague signed a contract extension with PSG until 2028.[11] On 24 June 2025, he was loaned out to Danish Superliga club Copenhagen until June 2026, with an option for the deal to be made permanent.[12] On 31 January 2026, Zague moved on a new loan to Eupen in the Belgian second-tier Challenger Pro League.[13] On 25 August 2026, was loaned out to Cypriot First Division club Pafos for the 2026–27 season, with the deal containing an option to buy.[14]

International career

On 31 October 2023, Zague was called up to the France under-17s for the 2023 FIFA U-17 World Cup held in Indonesia.[15] The team went on to qualify for the final for the second time in history, and was eventually defeated by Germany in a penalty shoot-out.[16]

Personal life

Born in Paris, France, Zague is of Ivorian descent.[17]
