According to Le Parisien and l’Équipe, Didider Deschamps, in office since 2012, will announce on Wednesday that he will not extend his contract as coach of the Blues.

The end of an era that lasted 14 years. Didier Deschamps, coach of the French football team since 2012, will leave his position as coach at the end of the 2026 World Cup (if the Blues qualify), indicate our colleagues from Le Parisien and L’Équipe .

He will make the announcement of his choice tomorrow, when he is the guest of the 1 p.m. news on TF1 as part of the yellow coin operation alongside Brigitte Macron. Still according to our colleagues, the decision of the man who won a world championship as a player (1998) and a world championship as a coach (2018), was taken several months ago.

From now on, he intends to concentrate on the two major competitions that await his players soon: the Nations League, and finally, and if the Blues qualify, the 2026 World Cup, organized in Mexico, the United States and Canada.
