Fired from the French women’s team last March, Corinne Deacon could come to Australia and New Zealand to attend the last four of the Women’s World Cup. The coach indeed collaborates with Fifa.

In the midst of the Women’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand, after the fine victory of Hervé Renard’s French team over Brazil in the second group stage match, The Team gives news of Corinne Deacon. The latter was ejected from her position as coach of the Blue on March 9, after numerous conflicts with the executives of her group for several years.

After having negotiated his breach of contract with the FFF to the tune of 870,000 euros (two years’ salary at 350,000 euros and a bonus equivalent to victory bonuses), Deacon can enjoy his new house, with swimming pool, bought in Soyaux ( Charente). But she has also worked for UEFA and Fifa in recent months, supervising matches in the men’s and women’s Champions League, and traveling to Brazil as part of a Fifa mentorship programme.

It is squarely as an observer for FIFA that Deacon could land in Oceania to attend the last four of the Women’s World Cup (in two weeks). Les Bleues may no longer be in the game, since they should face Germany in the round of 16. The 48-year-old coach, requested by Asian federations, could then return to service, hoping for a “ ambitious project “, as revealed The Parisian.
