The French team's soporific match against Israel on Thursday evening is one too many for Daniel Riolo, who is calling for the departure of Didier Deschamps before the elections for the presidency of the FFF on December 14.
Under contract with the French Football Federation until the 2026 World Cup, Didier Deschamps has nothing to fear for his future. Barring an earthquake, the current coach of the Blues will still be in place in a year and a half in the United States to try to win his second World Cup. But for Didier Deschamps, change must come now. While the elections for the presidency of the French Football Federation are scheduled for December 14, Philippe Diallo has a golden opportunity to mark his territory and score points.
Stunned by the Blues' soporific performance against Israel on Thursday evening, the RMC journalist believes that Didier Deschamps must be thanked before the end of the calendar year. A huge risk that Philippe Diallo will have difficulty taking, especially since if he decided to fire “DD”, the current interim president of the FFF would have to pay him for his remaining two years of contract. “The French fan at the moment, and it's been going on for quite some time because the worst thing is that it was going on even when you were winning the matches, he's pissed off and he's ashamed of his team. It’s terrible not to be proud of your team” said Daniel Riolo before continuing.
Daniel Riolo expects a strong gesture from Philippe Diallo
“I find that it’s a feeling that wins over a lot of French people. But Philippe Diallo has one avenue between now and his election to make a decision as a great lord, which would ensure that he would win the election but also that the French would be grateful to him, and that is to change coach. With the money that the Fédé brought in in terms of advertisements, Diallo can sign the check to Deschamps. He will have a private paddle in his villa in the garden” analyzed the journalist in After Foot. Disillusioned by the game offered by the Blues for many years, the journalist is calling for a change of coach. It now remains to be seen whether Philippe Diallo will move a finger before the FFF elections in a month, which we can logically doubt.
