France team: Le Graët and Deschamps have an appointment next week

Noël Le Graët wants to approach 2023 calmly.

The president of the French Football Federation assured Ouest-France that he would meet Didier Deschamps “next week” to try to ratify his extension at the head of the France team.

Le Graët wants to settle this file “before the end of the year, if possible”.

“In my opinion we will settle this in Guingamp”, place of the meeting and stronghold of “NLG”, explained the leader of the FFF, satisfied with the performance of the Blues at the World Cup.

He had set the goal for Deschamps to lead the Habs to the semi-finals.

The French team reached the final before losing on penalties against Argentina.

The Breton is confident, he even claimed not to have "thought of the fact that Deschamps could leave".

The new contract would run until 2024, the year of the Euro in Germany.

This date also corresponds to that of Le Graët's departure, as he assured Ouest-France: "I will be at three terms, for me the Federation will be over in 2024. "

The extension of the 1998 world champion has the air of false suspense.

“He has the cards in hand.

The proposal, I will make it to him.

Now it's up to him to decide, ”Le Graët already advanced in our columns after the final.

Emmanuel Macron himself had spoken about the coach's retention: "I told him that he had to digest but of course I asked Didier Deschamps to continue, I want him to continue. !
