The star of the French national football team Kylian Mbappe revealed to the media in his homeland who should take the place of Didier Deschamps at the head of the "roosters" after the end of the 2026 World Cup, FOCUS reported.
"I understand who you are talking about, but I will not discuss this topic, as this is not my right. The decisions are made by the president of the federation. Everyone is talking about Zidane. We are aware of the rumors and we do not live in a vacuum, but we should not talk about this topic. Who would be the ideal successor? Zinedine Zidane! But as I have already said, the decision will be made by Philippe Diallo, president of the French Football Federation. It will be interesting to see what criteria he will take into account and what decision he will make“, shared the Real Madrid player.
Didier Deschamps has been at the helm of France since 2012 until now, and in 2018 France reached the gold medal at the World Cup in Russia, and 4 years later lost the final to Argentina in Qatar.
