Zinedine Zidane left an unforgettable memory wherever he went. This is particularly the case at AS Cannes, which the Marseille native joined in 1987 at only 15 years old. And if Jean Fernandez remains in history the one who launched him with professionals at only 16 years old, Guy Lacombe was at the head of the training center when the young midfielder landed in the Cité Riviera.
Since then, the technician obviously has only good to say of the 1998 Golden Ballon and spoke to Ouest France the possible arrival of Zinedine Zidane at the head of the French team when Didier Deschamps will leave the bar at the from the 2026 World Cup. ” I find that it would be a very good thing, as much for him as for French football ”, he said.
“I have the feeling that he really wants it”
“Honestly, who can take the job after Didier Deschamps and what he did?” I think Zinedine is the most legitimate for this. It is only he who could decide that not. But I have the feeling that he really wants it. The circumstances will just have to be met “, He continued.
Unlike some, Guy Lacombe therefore does not doubt his will to take the reins of the Blues. “” I sincerely think that this is what he wants, from what I have known and understand, he added. He already thought about it when he trained Real. He was not hiding from it. And I find that the way it is done is good. It is Didier who decides and who announces it. Hoping that by then, everything is going well, so that Yazid can have the players in the best conditions. »»
