The coach of the France team should make the news in a very unexpected way this week.

Called to spend a peaceful vacation between two gatherings of the France team, Didier Deschamps should surprise the general public this week. The coach of the Blues would indeed have accepted the invitation of Zinédine Zidane to celebrate the anniversary of the victory at the 1998 World Cup, 25 years ago to the day, in the final against Brazil (3-0).

The event will take place this Wednesday at the Z5 complex in Aix-en-Provence, property of the former number 10 of the Blues that many football celebrities are used to frequenting, like David Beckham recently. If the initiative is not surprising, the presence of Deschamps challenges more since the technician has often been absent during these scheduled meetings in recent years. Repeated absences linked to his function obviously, but also to his enmities.

Deschamps ready to break his habits

Didier Deschamps has been able to show in the past that he had stubborn resentment. His volcanic relationship with his former team-mate Christophe Dugarry – close to Zinedine Zidane – kept him away from France 98. It was Deschamps who parted ways with France 98. He had a problem with me, he just had to come and see me. We would have solved the problem between men. We don’t like each other, it doesn’t matter. But that doesn’t stop him from coming to meals, vacations or meetings we have together. “, had dropped Dugarry on RMC Sport a few months ago. “There is a problem Deschamps Dugarry, because we don’t like each other, that’s all. He doesn’t like me, I don’t like him. Afterwards, I am able to recognize that its extension is deserved “.

A “Deschamps-Dugarry” problem which could be interpreted, by extension, as a “Deschamps-Zidane” problem, while the two men share the ambition to be in charge of the France team. But between these two historical figures of French football, respect prevails. The reunion of this Wednesday will be able to attest it.
