Zidane reaches agreement to coach the French national team.

Zinedine Zidane is set to return to the coaching bench after a long wait, having reached an agreement to lead the French national team.

French football is about to enter a new chapter.

According to AS , the former Real Madrid coach has finalized all agreements with the French Football Federation and will officially take over "Les Bleus" after the 2026 World Cup. At that time, coach Didier Deschamps will also conclude his long journey with the national team.

In fact, Zidane had been harboring this plan for a long time. For many years, he consistently rejected attractive offers from major clubs to wait for the opportunity to coach the French national team. Recently, a top European team offered Zidane a return, but he firmly said no.

Since leaving Real Madrid in 2021 after his second stint, Zidane has been relatively low-profile. However, his name has never lost its appeal, constantly being linked with big clubs like PSG, Chelsea, and even a huge offer from Al Hilal. Nevertheless, the three-time Champions League winner has rejected all of them.

During his time away from the pitch, Zidane spent most of his time with his family and closely followed his sons' careers, while also frequently appearing at the Santiago Bernabeu to watch Real Madrid play.

Now that everything is settled, Zidane's dream has finally come true. And French football is about to enter a new era under the guidance of one of the best coaches in its history.
