A year World Cup is still special. Indeed, next June, the 2026 World Cup will take place on the American continent. A necessarily special meeting for Didier Deschamps. After more than 13 years of good and loyal service, the coach of the French team will bow out after this final meeting. An acted start that will necessarily force French players to finish on a good note with the former OM coach. Then, who will be Didier Deschamps’ successor?
For months, this question seems to have a very natural answer in the person of Zinedine Zidane. The former Real Madrid coach never hid his attachment to the post of coach of the Blues. Since leaving the White House in 2021, he has refused club offers to stay available for this ultimate dream. This Monday, The team Affirms that ZZ continues to want to take over from Didier Deschamps.
Didier Deschamps knows that several French players want to work with him
According to our colleagues, Zinedine Zidane is preparing in silence to take the reins of the French team after the 2026 World Cup. While Didier Deschamps confirmed his departure at the end of the tournament, Zizou observes the players and the competitions in which players eligible for the selection. Several of his relatives claim that the former 1998 Ballon d’Or observes and knows everything. He also knows that several French players dream of working with him. Among these support supports, Kylian Mbappé would really like to collaborate with the former galactic according to our colleagues.
On the side of the federation, we advance with more caution. Philippe Diallo does not wish to make premature announcements and wishes to allow Didier Deschamps to work without pressure for his final meeting with the Blues. Behind the scenes, things seem to be put in place so that Zizou takes the torch, even if Diallo also appreciates the profile of Thierry Henry. One thing now seems to be acted, Zidane is ready to be the new coach of the French Team.
