TThe wait is over for Hose, who did not see Zinedine Zidane on the bench again. Or so it seems. Zizou will not return to coaching until after the World Cup, and his destination will be France.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Zidane will return to coaching the French national team. It is reported that a verbal agreement has already been reached for Zidane to take over as coach after the 2026 World Cup, which is the final project of current French national team coach Didier Deschamps.
Zinedine Zidane switches direction from Paris to Madrid as Real Madrid rumors suddenly become reality
For the past five years, there has been a lot of talk about “Zizou” being suitable to be the coach of “Les Bleus”. Now, the French Football Federation is making the dream come true for every fan who wants a legend on the bench of their national team. As reported by Romano, subject to the signing of the deal, Zidane will become France’s manager in the next step of the process.
He left Real Madrid in June 2021. Five years passed since then before he returned to managing the team. He ignored some offers and turned a deaf ear to many more. Because he had only one goal: to become the manager of France. His goal will soon be achieved.
Zidane is the idol of the national team
For fans, this will be something fresh in their memories. They have not forgotten that “Zizou” was the man who led France to its first victory at the 1998 World Cup in France. He wore the national team shirt 108 times, wearing the same shirt he wore when they won Euro 2000 and finished runners-up at the 2006 World Cup in Germany.
Then, thanks to his success as a coach at Real Madrid, fans began to look to him as a coach for the national team. His name creates a coincidence, so no one criticizes or opposes his choice.
A challenge comparable to Deschamps’ management
Taking on the job of head coach of the French national team is a burden that comes with both demands and obligations. At the very least, he will have to become like Didier Deschamps, who designed a management system that produced good results.
