Zidane Takes Over from Deschamps After 14 Years
Sources have reported that the French Football Federation is about to announce the appointment of Zinedine Zidane as the head coach of the French national team, succeeding Didier Deschamps, whose tenure ended after 14 years during which he led France to victory in the 2018 World Cup. A press conference is expected to be held on Tuesday to introduce Zidane, who is 54 years old and a strong candidate for the role, having expressed his ambition to oversee the national team for years. This change comes as Deschamps' term concludes; he guided France through the 2026 World Cup, where they finished in fourth place. The leadership is anticipated to shift toward new coaching talents like Zidane.
