Zapping Foot National Laure Boulleau: “I imagine a sequence where Mbappé talks about a Les Bleues match…”

His name has recently been circulating in , and more precisely in . Before Stade Rennais made a decision and decided to trust the Argentinian Jorge Sampaoli, appointed this Monday, November 11 in the evening, the Breton club would have actually considered enlisting Rudi Garcia to replace Julien Stéphan. It is more precisely his Italian sports director Frederic Massara who would have made the ex-coach of Olympique de and Olympique Lyonnais his favorite. But the latter, also known for his time at LOSC, will not return to France. Not now, anyway.

A problem to solve

In the meantime, the 60-year-old technician would be in the balance to take over a sideline that he knows well: that of AS Roma. The club from the Italian capital has been going through a crisis since the start of the year, with disappointing results and above all a waltz of coaches. After Daniele De Rossi in September, it was Ivan Juric who was dismissed on Sunday, following a defeat suffered against Bologna (2-3) in Serie A. The current twelfth in the transalpine championship is therefore, once again, looking for a coach.

Several options are being considered by Roman decision-makers, such as the illustrious Roberto Mancini or Massimiliano Allegri, even the Englishman Frank Lampard or the German Edin Terzic. But the Frenchman Rudi Garcia could well hold the rope according to information from L'Équipe, in particular. The native of Nemours has the benefit of having experience in Serie A and Roma (2013-2016), what's more with convincing results, as well as an affordable salary. Only problem: the 2011 French champion is still under contract until May 2025 with Naples, a club he briefly encountered at the start of the 2023-2024 season. It's up to Rudi Garcia, without a club for a year now, to find a solution with his ex-employer if he wishes to return to service!

To summarize

Rudi Garcia would be in the balance to take over a sideline that he knows well: that of AS Rome. The club from the Italian capital has been going through a crisis since the start of the year, with disappointing results and above all a waltz of coaches.
