After having signed a brilliant participation with the French selection in the Glass of the World of Qatar 2022 in spite of the sensitive drops that faced the combined Frenchman of face to the tournament, the French Federation of Football has ratified his vote of confidence in Didier Deschamps, the one who will continue at the head of the twice champion of the world until 2026, year in which it will celebrate the following edition of the tournament in Canada, United States and Mexico.

This agreement has produced after several weeks of conversations between the technician and the directive of the federative body, that has given to know the extension of his bond through a communiqué with his registers like seleccionador: "Appointed on 9 July 2012 by Noël Him Graët, Didier Deschamps has an exceptional list of winners at the head of the selection with 89 victories, 28 ties and 22 defeats in 139 parties, 279 goals in favour and 119 against".

Of equal way, the FFF has recognised his merits to the control of the combined national that have cost him his renewal until 2026: "Under his direction, the French selection won the World-wide of 2018, the Nations League of 2021, arrived to the final of the Eurocopa of 2016 and the World-wide of 2022. At present it occupies the third place in the classification of the FIFA, where always has been between the four first in the last five years".

In accordance with the newspaper 'ACE', the first meetings between the parts took place on 29 December, to few days of the final of the championship of the world. For then, the debate centred in the length of his agreement: on the one hand, the federation wanted to continue with Deschamps at the front until 2024, but the seleccionador asked at least two years more. Finally, Noël Him Graët would finish yielding in front of his requests.

Zidane, descartado for the moment

With this renewal, remains stagnated for now the arrival of Zinedine Zinedine to the bench of 'Them Bleus'. After his go through the Real Madrid in two opportunities, the ex midfield player Frenchman and mate of Deschamps in the first world-wide conquest reached by the French in 1998 will not be able to fulfil for the moment his put to do charge of the combined. Even so, other teams, so many clubs like selections, could have him in the sight.
