While many hope to see him take charge of the France team after the departure of Didier Deschamps, more and more observers doubt his success in the coach's role.
The arrival of Zinedine Zidane on the bench of the France team appears inevitable. After hoping to take the reins of the Blues after the World Cup in Qatar, the former playmaker finally had to come to terms and be patient and barring an improbable turnaround, he will indeed have to wait until 2026 to take on the role of coach.
If Thierry Henry has some arguments to put forward since the success of the Bleuets at the Olympic Games, it will be difficult for the president of the French Football Federation not to nominate Zinedine Zidane if he declares himself a candidate. However, more and more voices are being heard to question this evidence.
Zinedine Zidane not cut out for the job?
“You can put Zizou, you can put whoever you want, it will last a few months but after that, reality will return because he will be confronted with the same reality as all the coaches”confided Emmanuel Petit to the microphone of RMC, adding: “As Zizou as he is, he will not perform miracles and will have to deal with players who are saturating physically and mentally because of the schedules. »
And for others, it's more ZZ's profile that raises the question.
“Coach and selector are not quite the same job. No daily presence with the players, but rather long weeks simply observing and analyzing while having to be content with having his group at his disposal only a few days a year. It's hard to know if Zidane is made for this life until we see him in action.”wrote journalist Adrien Mathieu in the columns of Point.
