Genesio at the head of the Blues?

Didier Deschamps will reach the end of his contract with the French federation at the end of the next World Cup. After fourteen years in this role, it is very possible that the Bayonne resident will have to hand over the baton. And if so, who will take his place? The name of Bruno Genesio is starting to be put forward.

The current coach of Lille has won nothing during his career and his best performance in the Champions League is a presence in the round of 16 of the event. However, some see him at the head of the French team. This is the case, for example, of Jean-Michel Larqué.

Genesio compared to Jacquet

“If Zizou doesn’t want the French team, why not Genesio? He reminds me a lot of Aimé Jacquet. In his attitude and in his calm. He's changed a lot these days. In terms of pedagogy, he is very similar to Aimé. Maybe they crossed paths on the Lyon side,” declared the Saint-Etienne legend on RMC Sport.

So, Genesio future coach of the Blues? It would still be quite a surprise. Even if he shares with Jurgen Klopp the particularity of having beaten Ancelotti, Simeone, Mourinho and Guardiola, the current coach of SRFC does not really have the profile of a national coach especially since he did not start as a coach principal at the highest level than just nine years ago.
