For Jérôme Rothen, Didier Deschamps will not continue his mission at the head of the France team if Euro 2024 goes badly for the Blues.
The Blues are set. Early Saturday evening, the draw for the group stage of Euro 2024 took place, scheduled from June 14 to July 14 in Germany. Kylian Mbappé and his partners will therefore face the Netherlands, Austria and a play-off, which could be Poland, Wales, Estonia or Finland. A group which therefore promises to be tough for the world vice-champions, who will have to be ready from the start to hope to validate their ticket for the round of 16.
In the event of failure, Jérôme Rothen sees Didier Deschamps leaving his post, despite a contract running until 2026, the date on which the next World Cup will take place in the United States, Canada and Mexico.
“If things ever go badly I don’t see how he could continue”
“Will this be his last major competition (Euro 2024)? A priori no. He has a contract that takes him to the World Cup in the United States, Mexico and Canada, but if things go badly I don’t see how he could continue. I don’t see him continuing, but as I didn’t see him continuing after the World Cup whatever happens, and on arrival he surprised me and he extended”confided the host on RMC.
If DD leaves, Rothen sees Zinedine Zidane succeeding him. “If it goes badly I don’t see it continuing because there will be a lot of criticism and then there will always be people who are there to take over and here I’m thinking of Zinedine Zidaneindicated the former Parisian. It’s always the same, he will always be there, and if things go wrong, even more so. I think that this pressure he lives with today but it will be his last and we will unfortunately remain with the image of a failure. »
