The succession of Didier Deschamps is now launched with a change of era which should also result in a profound internal transformation. After 14 years marked by great stability around the Blues, Zinédine Zidane wishes to set up her own operation and start with a new organization according to The Team. The future coach should therefore arrive accompanied by a largely renewed staff, with several trusted men already known since his time at Real Madrid. David Bettoni, Hamidou Msaidie and Stéphane Plancque should notably be part of this new team, while the former Madrid physical trainer Grégory Dupont is also expected in a role yet to be defined.
Indeed, Zinédine Zidane also intends to rely on her network and her experience to build a framework in her image. The path leading to Fabien Barthez for the position of goalkeeper coach is particularly studied and could materialize, while the new boss of the Blues also wishes to strengthen the monitoring of young French talents with the help of relatives like Bernard Diomède. The formalization of his arrival should take place in the coming days, before a first public speech and a real start of mandate planned for the fall with already very important deadlines for the new French team.
