Current coach of Les Bleues, Hervé Renard should not go further than the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. He would be close to an agreement with the Egyptian Federation to take charge of the selection.
If he made a strong choice by turning his back on the Saudi selection to commit last March to the French Football Federation and become the coach of the French women’s team, Hervé Renard seems more determined than ever to leave towards new adventures next summer. If he signed a contract until the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, the French tactician is today desired by many African selections. The latest is that of Egypt. An agreement would even be very close to being found.
According to Kora Plus, discussions between the two parties would be on the verge of success. A source from the Egyptian federation cited by the local media confirmed that “ negotiations with Hervé Renard are at an advanced stage and all that remains is to settle the financial details. » Details which should not pose a problem for long. During the African Cup of Nations which is currently taking place, Hervé Renard was seen several times in the stands during Egypt’s matches.
Several candidates
While waiting to know if “the man in the white shirt” does indeed decide to help Mohamed Salah and his selection partners, other candidates remain in the running. Ivory Coast hoped to recruit him temporarily after the sudden departure of Jean-Louis Gasset in the middle of CAN, but the FFF refused, leaving the field open to Emerse Faé who has since seized his chance and who could stay longer than expected on the Elephant bench.
Algeria is also interested. The Federation must already settle the Djamel Belmadi file, whom it hoped to see leave for free, but the dismissed coach is still under contract and does not intend to give his employer a gift. During this time, Hervé Renard continued discussions with Egypt. And maybe that’s where he will be once his mission with the Blues is over.
