Holder of a Master's degree in international law, I realized at the end of my university career that it was important to evolve in a field that you appreciate. Overnight, I decided to put an end to my parents' dream, who saw in me a future lawyer, to make a living from my passion: sport. Since then, I have covered transfer windows and sports news, trying to keep readers informed as best as possible.
While Didier Deschamps announced that he would leave his position as coach of the France team in 2026, rumors around Zinédine Zidane suddenly occupied the media space. The former Real Madrid coach ticks all the boxes to take over from his former partner. But this prospect gives Stephen Brun, a former basketball player, a sweat.
Preview at Paris during the last Olympic Games, Zinédine Zidane could get a little closer to his native country by taking over from Didier Deschamps at the head of the French team. Zizou has indicated on numerous occasions, its history with the Blues is not finished. And the announcement of the departure of Deschamps offers him hope of realizing his coaching dream.
-Henry gives him free reign?
In this case, it's as if no one wants to get involved in the fight. Even Thierry Henry, silver medalist at the Olympic Games, seems not to want to seize this opportunity. “ This has long been what everyone was thinking or asking for. And then it would be deserved » confided the legend ofArsenal at the microphone of RMC. On this same channel, Stephen Brun expressed some reservations about the appointment of Zidane. Absent from the field since his departure from Real Madrid in 2021, the French coach was missing, while many clubs have contacted him in recent years to encourage him to take the plunge again.
“I’m going to dare to put some downsides”
« CThe scenario seems too well written. I will dare to put some downsides. Being coach of the France team is not necessarily a merit. Does Zidane have the skills to be coach of the France team? If he waits until 2026, he will not have coached for six years. It's huge. He doesn't do workouts. Zidane is Zidane, but we have the right to have uncertainties » confided the former basketball player during the Super Moscato Show.
