Zidane, farewell to football confirmed

It’s a noise that keeps growing in volume: what if Zinedine Zidane were to give up football for good?

Jean-Michel Larqué threw a spanner in the works on Tuesday evening on RMC: ” I’m willing to take a bet: Zinedine Zidane will never take the French team. That’s my feeling… I think he’s not interested. He gave a polite answer to a question that was put to him but he doesn’t believe a single word of it. »

Tired of waiting his turn while Didier Deschamps has been the coach of Les Bleus since 2012, could Zinedine Zidane simply give up his coaching career beyond Les Bleus? His sidekick and great friend Christophe Dugarry does not rule out such a scenario. The former number 10 of Les Bleus, after all, has not officiated on a bench for more than three years.

“Maybe we’ll never see Zizou as a coach again”

” Everyone speaks for him. The few times he has spoken, he said he was interested in the French team. He at least has the merit of being consistent. He has been credited with wanting to go to Italy, England, Bayern Munich… each time, he doesn’t even answer. Where I agree with Jean-Michel

(Larqué, editor’s note), is that maybe we will never see Zizou as a coach again. Yes it is possible “, breathes the man who shared the French jersey and that of the Girondins de Bordeaux with Zizou.

” But when Jean-Michel says that Zizou is not interested in the French team, he is wrong. Zizou is interested in the French team. If he has to coach again, his greatest and wildest desire is to be coach of the French team.continues Christophe Dugarry on RMC. How long is he willing to wait? I don’t know. It’s an incredible waste. I just want to say: “Thank you Didier

(Deschamps, editor’s note) for what you did.” And I want to see how things will go with Zizou. »
