The announcement had the effect of a small bombshell: Didier Deschamps will leave his post. The coach of theFrench team announced that he would retire at the end of his contract, after the 2026 World Cup, during an interview with TF1 a few days ago.
“ It will stop there because it has to stop at some point. In my head, it’s very clear. I served my time with the same desire, the same passion to maintain the French team at the highest level. », Launched Deschamps, while refusing to mention the name of Zinédine Zidane among his potential successors.
Valid Lizarazu
The debate concerning the next coach of the Blues is however well relaunched. Zidane’s supporters include Christophe Dugarry and Bixente Lizarazu, his former friends from the Girondins de Bordeaux. Lizarazu did not hide his enthusiasm at the idea of seeing ZZ take charge, but the former defender also and above all wanted to greet Deschamps.
“I think it’s very elegant of him to announce his decision in advance. This will allow the successor to prepare in the best conditions”underlined the 1998 world champion in the Téléfoot show this Sunday. An outing that Deschamps, sensitive to criticism, should appreciate.
