Zidane Tipped to Replace Deschamps as France Manager After 2026 World Cup
The French Football Federation is preparing to finalise a long-term deal with Zinedine Zidane. Officials plan to wrap up all contract details once the 2026 World Cup ends. According to transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano (via YS Scores), Zidane has ignored other offers for eight months. He has his sights firmly set on succeeding Didier Deschamps. Deschamps will step down after leading Les Bleus to the 2026 tournament. Zidane’s proposed contract would run until the 2030 World Cup, marking his first spell in charge of the national side after successful years at Real Madrid.
