Historic Return: Zinedine Zidane set for official France presentation on Tuesday

"Zizou" will return to the dugout after Deschamps' tenure with the French national team

After five years in ostracism, Zinedine Zidane is back to fulfill his dream of becoming France's national team coach. One of the most successful coaches in the world and in Real Madrid's history will sit on the bench again. All roads lead to him. And, next Tuesday will be his official unveiling.

'The French Football Federation called a press conference a few days ago for Tuesday the 28th of this month to announce and present the man who will be Didier Deschamps' successor in charge of the French national team after 14 years of success. He did not say goodbye in the best way, losing to Spain and England, but his legacy with "Les Bleus" will be eternal.'

After their third consecutive semifinal, the France national team was left orphaned, but everyone knew who would adopt them. The challenge Zidane will take on will be enormous. As it was during his two spells at Real Madrid. But it will not be until 2028 that we will see him in a major tournament, at the Euro in the United Kingdom and Ireland.

A dream reunion

It will be the pairing everyone is eager to see. As much as Real Madrid tried, in the end it will happen with the French national team. Zidane will finally be able to coach Kylian Mbappé. A beast whose numbers for France are frightening. And now he will have a coach who doesn’t play finals, he wins them. And not just a few.

'We already saw them together at the presentation of the Gallic star with Real Madrid two years ago. But this time it will be different and special. Five years later, Zidane is putting on a suit again. "Zizou" dusts off the tactics board. Next Tuesday, Zinedine Zidane and France will join their paths.'
