While it had made it its priority for the position of coach, Algeria had to make up its mind.
The dream has passed for Algerian supporters and the leaders of the Federation. While an entire country began to dream of the arrival of Zinedine Zidane on the Fennecs bench, the former world champion refused. On Sunday, representatives of the Algerian federation were in Paris to meet Alain Migliaccio, the agent of the former Madrilenian.
But according to RMC, the meeting ultimately ended. The Algerian leaders quickly made up their minds, Zinedine Zidane being in no way interested in the position of coach of the Fennecs as his agent made known while the Algerian Federation still hoped to convince him to take over from Djamel Belmadi . The idea of seeing the 1998 Ballon d’Or become the coach of Algeria did not displease certain members of his family…
Faced with Zinedine Zidane’s refusal, the Algerian federation will have to activate other avenues, including that leading to Julen Lopetegui, former Spain coach and without a contract since his departure from Wolverhampton last summer. The name of Hervé Renard was also mentioned, but the coach of the French women’s team will not be free until the end of the Olympic Games to be held next summer.
