The pill does not pass.
The remarks of Noël Le Graët on Zinédine Zidane made Sunday evening at the microphone of RMC continue to arouse indignation, anger, revolt.
The president of the French Football Federation said he had "nothing to shake" about a possible signing of the French footballing legend at the head of the Brazil selection before saying that if Zidane had tried to reach him to talk about the post of coach of the Blues, he “would not even have taken it on the phone”.
It was enough to trigger a tsunami of reactions against him, the most emblematic being obviously that of Kylian Mbappé: “Zidane is France, we do not disrespect a legend like that … »
In the process, many other personalities from sport, but also from entertainment or politics (such as the Minister of Sports Amélie Oudéa-Castera) gave their support to the 1998 world champion. Starting with his teammate in the France team at the Yuri Djorkaeff era.
"Unwelcome, misplaced, we are talking about a world champion, we are talking about the World Champion", tweeted the "Snake".
Bad come, badly placed, we are talking about a world champion, we are talking about the World Champion.

For Djibril Cissé, there is no other way out for the president of the FFF than to leave.
“Mr Le Graet.

Singer Matt Pokora also flew to the aid of "MONSIEUR Zidane" with a tweet featuring the emblematic photo of "Zizou"'s face displayed on the Arc de Triomphe after the victory of the Blues in the 1998 World Cup final against Brazil (3-0).
Actor-director Franck Gastambide posted a photo of Zidane with the World Cup in hand.

More surprising and more offbeat, the reaction of the firefighters of France who assure that they would have answered Zinedine Zidane's phone call despite the more than 16 million calls received.
#Zidane |
📞 16,620,980 calls taken by #firefighter operators in alert processing centers 🚒….
And none of Zinedine Zidane!
While him, it would make us very happy if he called us!
Certainly: we would pick up!
