2022 World Cup: Deschamps unhappy with the treatment of the selections

2021-11-04T13:55:09.576Z


Asked about the selection calendar for the next World Cup, the coach of the Blues did not mince words against the lack of preparation reserved for the teams.


"

Like all breeders, I suffer it. It is not ideal (the selections will have a week of preparation). With each competition it is more and more reduced. There it is at the bare minimum without knowing our calendar, the date of the first match… Knowing that we must be on site 4 or 5 days before the first match. These are additional complications. For those who will start the World Cup, it will be practically impossible to make a friendly ... We know all the risks that this can bring, but it is far from ideal to prepare for a competition of this style. There will be no preparation, as usual, it will be necessary to adapt. It is restrictive, reductive, I regret it, but that we have at least two weeks, it is the strict minimum.I'm not going to say that it makes me smile but it's far from ideal for players

“Said Didier Deschamps about the shortened preparation for the next World Cup.

The selections will have barely a week to prepare before the start of the competition.
