Zinedine Zidane no rival. The legendary player and coach of real Madrid is the undisputed number 1 of French fans when it comes to betting on a replacement for Didier Deschamps at the head of the French team, which the current coach will leave after world 2026, as announced this week.
In a survey opened by the newspaper L’Equipe to know the state of opinion of the French followers in this matter,’Zizou‘was swept away by other candidates proposed by this newspaper.
Almost three quarters of voters are inclined to see the hero of the final of World Cup 1998 (3-0 from France to Brazil with two goals from ZZ) sitting on the bench of the ‘bleu’ team after Deschamps’ departure.
In particular, Zidane got 72.35% of the votes, which is far beyond Bruno Genesio (Lille coach), which takes 9.98%, or at ‘Dick’ Henry (former under-21 coach who left the position after this summer’s Games) with 6.85%.
The option to hire a technician alien had 2.72% of the votes, while Frank Haise (Nice), concentrates 2.34% of the votes. Finally, 5.77% opted for a ‘technician’ surprise‘.
