He was not scalded by the Euro finished in blood sausage, with ten surreal and fatal minutes against Switzerland in the quarterfinals (3-3, 4-5 in the tabs).

At the head of the Blues since 2012, Didier Deschamps obviously does not want to return his apron after the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, the end of his current contract.

"I am fulfilled," he said during a roundtable gathering several media, including AFP.

I don't feel any wear and tear as a coach.

If I could be 10 years older than what I'm experiencing today, that would be ideal.

Because that's the very, very high level, that's all I like.

"

While Noël Le Graët, the president of the FFF, is much less categorical on the subject, Deschamps shows his desire to continue.

For “DD”, “2021 remains a positive year” with success in the League of Nations and despite “the premature elimination of the Euro [which] hurt”.

From now on, he is aiming for a second consecutive world title at the head of the Blues, which would be his third staff after that as captain in 1998. “The ambition is this: to go to the end.

Afterwards, when you say that, ambition becomes complacency and when you don't say it, it's jargon.

This was the case for the last Euro.

But we must have this ambition, even if there is no guarantee.

"

Karim Benzema comforted, Giroud permanently forgotten?

With which players?

Despite his suspended prison sentence, Karim Benzema "is selectable, it is the position of the president of the Federation", recalled Deschamps.

For the Girouds, Sissoko or Mandanda, it's a different story.

“At one point, it stops.

There is never the right timing but it is like that.

Today, these three players are still selectable.

This does not mean necessarily selected.

»Pure Deschamps.
