While his name is mentioned with insistence in Algeria, Hervé Renard has already planned to stop his mission at the head of the French women’s team after the Olympic Games.
Less than a year after turning his back on Saudi Arabia despite a contract that linked him to the Saudi Federation until 2026 to succeed Corinne Diacre at the head of the French women’s team, could Hervé Renard make Les Bleues fail this time? The question arises as his name comes up insistently in discussions around the position of Algeria coach.
The defeat conceded this Tuesday by the Fennecs against Mauritania was too much for Djamel Belmadi. The day after this shameful setback, synonymous with a new elimination from the group stage of the African Cup of Nations, the now ex-Algerian coach has in fact resigned and Walid Sadi, the president of the Algerian Federation, set out to find his successor. With a priority target: Hervé Renard.
Questioned by the Algerian media El-Bilad, Hervé Renard did not fail to respond to this rumor. “ I am under contract with the French Federation until next August,” he confided, leaving the door open for an arrival at the end of his contract with the FFF: “ I cannot comment on this matter. » And according to RMC, the question has already been decided. The Savoyard technician has already decided to leave his post at the head of the Bleues at the end of the Olympic Games. With the idea in mind of joining the African continent. Good news for the Fennecs.
