This appointment has been anticipated by the European media for several months.
Zidane will succeed Didier Deschamps, his teammate from France’s triumphant 1998 World Cup squad, who has managed Les Bleus for 14 years, during which he secured a World Cup title.
Deschamps will bid farewell this Saturday (18) during the third-place match against England at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
