Everton defender Kurt Zouma is full of praise for PSG striker Eric-Maxim Choupo-Moting.

The Chelsea-owned stopper played with Choupo-Moting last season at Stoke City.

Zouma told RMC: "He's a great friend. I'm not surprised to see him play at Paris Saint-Germain. I know his qualities. He is a player who deserves to be where he is. In training, I was struggling with him. He is technical for his size. He's going fast.

"He can play as a 9 and on the wings. He is a team player, he fights for the team, he goes for the pass before scoring. He is a locker player. He is exceptional.

"In the locker room of PSG, he must do a lot of good. Through his experience, where he has gone, he must lead by example."
