Zinédine Zidane’s staff continues to take shape. According to our information, Farid Tabet is very close to joining the staff of the new coach of the France team. Although the file has not yet been formalized, discussions are very advanced and optimism is in order. During his presentation conference on July 28, Zinédine Zidane announced his intention to reunite with a large part of his staff who accompanied him to Real Madrid, while specifying that he wanted to add “ two to three people » additional. According to our information, the former coach of Cannet Rocheville should be part of these new reinforcements.
A well-known figure in Riviera football, Farid Tabet managed Le Cannet Rocheville for around ten years (2011-2014; 2015-2024), leaving his mark on the club. An experience that has allowed him to build a solid reputation in the industry. In the summer of 2024, he took a step forward by joining Club Africain (Tunisia) as assistant coach to David Bettoni. A choice far from trivial since Bettoni is one of Zinédine Zidane’s most loyal collaborators, whose assistant he was during his two stints on the Real Madrid bench. This collaboration between Bettoni and Tabet would have allowed the latter to get closer to Zinédine Zidane’s circle of trust. Still according to our information, this link could now lead to an arrival within the staff of the France team. Unless the situation turns around, Farid Tabet should join the Blues and participate in this new adventure led by Zinédine Zidane. New proof that the 1998 world champion intends to rely on men he knows and in whom he has total confidence to launch his mandate at the head of the French selection.
