Zinedine Zidane one step closer to dream job after Manchester United decision

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Zinedine Zidane is reportedly edging closer to his dream role with the France national team as current manager Didier Deschamps faces a dressing room revolt.

Despite leading Les Bleus to World Cup victory in 2018 and reaching the tournament's final in 2022, Deschamps has come under fire following lacklustre performances at Euro 2024 and disputes with key players.

The situation has escalated to the point where he has omitted Kylian Mbappe from the squad for the upcoming Nations League matches, prompting rumours that the star player may quit the national team in protest against Deschamps.

However, Mbappe isn't the only one expressing dissatisfaction with the current management. As France prepares to host Israel and travel to Italy for their final Nations League group stage matches next week, it seems Deschamps will also be battling to keep his position.
