Next Tuesday, the FFF will present its new coach to the media. And if all of France expects to see Zinédine Zidane sitting alongside the president of the FFF, Philippe Diallo, this issue continues to annoy Jean-Michel Aulas. Vice-president of the FFF, the former boss of OL had already made a rant yesterday. He brought it up again this Friday, in a story published on his Instagram account.
“The French team will have a new coach from next Tuesday. Philippe Diallo took this issue seriously in order to prepare the future of our national team. I am nevertheless surprised by the leaks from this COMEX, even though it is made up of many responsible members. Regarding the appointment of the future coach, I would have favored closer consultation. Such an approach would perhaps have made it possible to better preserve the confidentiality of our exchanges and protect our bodies. This is also the method that has already been used on several sensitive issues. How could exchanges strictly reserved for COMEX members end up in the media? A Federation can only function peacefully if trust between its members is fully respected. The confidentiality of our exchanges is part of this. I spoke at length with Philippe Diallo yesterday afternoon and we were able to discuss this situation calmly. Above all, I am very happy that the French Football Federation can count, after the extraordinary period under the leadership of Didier Deschamps, on an extraordinary personality to write a new chapter in the history of the Blues. I will be very happy to find him again and accompany him in this new adventure.”he wrote.
