Deschamps Supports Zidane to Take Over as France Coach in 2026
France’s head coach, Didier Deschamps, has thrown his support behind Zinedine Zidane as a potential successor when he steps down in 2026.
In his first interview since announcing his departure, Deschamps confirmed he would leave his role in January 2026, sparking discussions about who will take over. Zidane has emerged as a strong contender, with many believing he is the natural choice to lead Les Bleus.
Speaking to L’Équipe, Deschamps acknowledged Zidane’s credentials, saying, “There is a lot of respect between us.
We last met in the summer of 2023 and should see each other again next summer. Zizou is a very good candidate, natural, and even expected. But I don’t know if he actually wants the job.”
Head coach of Atletico Madrid, Diego Simeone, speaks on team defense and called out a player who needs to toughen up. He shared that Ademola Lookman needs to work on defense.
“Ademola Lookman arrived with great enthusiasm and desire to keep growing. We need him to add defensive work to what he already gives us offensively, because he has that ability,” he then added.
“He’s shown it with the Nigeria national team, and we need him in that role.”
Former football legend Paul Merson states that Mohammad Salah is the greatest winger of all time.
While also praising Bukayo Saka for being the winger in form right now.
When asked in a recent interview, he stated “For the best right now, it’s probably [Bukayo] Saka for his all-around game. I will go Salah, because the numbers he’s put up are ridiculous.”
Former player Paul Merson shares his predictions on this weekend’s Premier League games.
He shared Leeds United vs Manchester City – Prediction: Leeds 1-1 Manchester City.
Manchester United vs Crystal Palace – Prediction: Manchester United 3-0 Crystal Palace.
Arsenal vs Chelsea – Prediction: Arsenal 1-0 Chelsea.
