The president of the French Football Federation has confirmed that Hervé Renard will leave his role as coach of Les Bleues after the Paris Olympic Games.
The outcome was expected, it is now official. After taking over from Corinne Diacre as the new coach of the French women's football team, Hervé Renard will not extend the contract that binds him to the Bleues until the 2024 Paris Olympic Games. He is the president of the FFF, Philippe Diallo, who confirmed it.
In a long interview given to Figaro, published on the media site this Wednesday, the boss of the French Football Federation took stock of various important subjects for the governing body of French football and he was notably invited to comment on the Hervé Renard file. Philippe Diallo played the card of transparency on the coach's recorded departure: “ He implied it. It is his wish to complete his mission and not continue it. (…) He is mobilized for the Games, and then he looks for his future. » A way of putting an early end to speculation and questions.
Win the Games
Released in the quarter-finals of the 2023 World Cup with his team, Hervé Renard then took Les Bleues to the final of the Nations League (lost to Spain, 2-0), the very first final in the history of the French selection. He now has the Olympic Games to play, with the ambition once again to win. A particularly challenging challenge for the tactician.
Once his contract is over, Hervé Renard will therefore have plenty of time to choose a new challenge. The resumption of a selection, in Africa or elsewhere, is a possibility. Unless he decides to try the adventure again on the bench of a club. There should be no shortage of proposals. For now, he remains focused on the last months he has left to spend with the Blues.
