The Didier Deschamps page was quickly turned into the French team. Despite his fourteen-year mandate at the head of the Blues, the 1998 world champion saw his successor, Zinédine Zidane, quickly take the spotlight during his debut in the Nations League. With results (three wins and a draw), strong choices and new intentions in the game.
However, “DD” has not been forgotten by the FFF. If no tribute was paid to him during the first “Zizou” gathering, Philippe Diallo has indeed planned something for the man who won the second star of French football in 2018. “I spoke about it with Didier at the end of the World Cup. His wish was to take a step back”he confided to Southwest.
Didier Deschamps will be entitled to his tribute
“As soon as he is ready, it is natural that a tribute will be paid to himadded the president of the body, passing through Gironde. I don’t forget that in 2010, it was the period of shame for French football with Knysna, elimination in the first round of the World Cup, a French team which no longer embodied the values of coming together, of respect, of work. »
“He managed to restore the image, to get people behind it again and to have sporting performances. It deserves the recognition of French football”he said, skipping in passing the work carried out by Laurent Blanc from 2010 to 2012, between the fiasco of the Blues in South Africa and the appointment of Didier Deschamps. Of which Philippe Diallo is only waiting for the green light.
