Since 2012, Didier Deschamps has taken over as head of the French team. The 1998 world champion was able to put the Blues, who have an XXL squad, on the roof of the world. And inevitably, his position is coveted in particular by another 98 world champion: Zinédine Zidane. At the same time, Thierry Henry, another winner in 98, took over the France Espoirs team. Enough to give ideas to Patrick Vieira, champion in 98?
At the microphone of Téléfoot, the current Strasbourg coach was asked about his desire to take charge of the Blues one day. And for him, he hopes to see DD continue for a long time. “I think the French team is in good hands with Didier. I hope he will remain coach for a very good period. And Thierry who has just taken on the Espoirs is very encouraging in his first two matches. I hope he takes this team very far.”
