They discovered the darkest side of the French team

He women’s socceror revealing. On the field and off it. The growth it has experienced in recent years has been enormous and it has led to important demands by soccer players, who want the same treatment and the same conditions as their teammates after years of suffering.

We have recently heard cases of some teams threatening strikes to achieve improvements (Canada) or giving up going to the World Cup this summer in Australia due to disagreements with their coaches (Spain and France ). It is not about the teams as a whole but about some (little or many) acts of rebellion by the players.

The case of 15 that showed their differences in Jorge Vilda It was sounded (the resignation was maintained) and now it is in the French team where a similar case has arisen. Wendy Renard, whose weight on the team and in the French dressing room is considerable, has threatened not to go to Australia in July because of a disagreement with coach Corinne Diacre. And the protest spread, with some colleagues showing their support.

This is the case, for example, of Kadidiatou Diani. The footballer shared with ‘Téléfoot’ (TF1) unknown and not very encouraging aspects about the daily life in the French team. “Our captain (Renard) decided to speak, he was very brave. I share the same point of view as her. I know he tried to fix the situation with the coach, but it didn’t work out and it’s difficult to move towards the same goal when we are against us in such a closed person. If we want to go far in the World Cup we need to have good communication between all of us and now it is not like “.

Diani detailed the ordeal experienced by the internationals, far from the best conditions to achieve victory: “We lack professionalism in the French team. The squad is quite small and that’s in the coach. We don’t have an assistant coach or an attack coaches. I really want to work in front of the goal and I can’t”, he lamented. “In the beginning, access to care was almost forbidden. I’m sorry to use these terms but it’s true. You had to be injured to qualify for massage or a normal treatment session.”

Diani refuses to go to the World Cup not knowing if all this will be fixed. And he asked the FFF to “take action”: “We gave him a cry of alarm, we expressed our feelings and I think they will study our case and take it all seriously. I think it’s important to have something new because we can’t bear with it Many have not expressed themselves, but that is what is happening and we have reached the point of no return. If you need to talk about a break, I would talk about on a break.”
