Nothing like a short trip to the countryside to forget the hassles of everyday life.

After the sad series of four games without a win during the last streak of the League of Nations, at the beginning of June, Didier Deschamps was invited by its president to come and cut the end of the fat on the side of Guingamp, in the stronghold of Noël Le Graët .

This is what the Breton announced to

L'Equipe

on Saturday: “He is going to come and spend a day with me at Guingamp.

Spending some time together isn't bad.

I really like those moments.

I invite him to July, we are going to talk about the organization of the World Cup, quietly, face to face.

We need to see what we did well, what we did wrong and what we can improve.

For me, it is necessary”.

Le Graët will decide according to the results of the World Cup

For NLG, “we shouldn't tell stories, we weren't good, we didn't show the face of world champions.

“But that does not change the confidence he has in his coach.

At least for now.

"I have full confidence in him," he said.

For the moment, we are in total harmony.

But as I have always said, there will be no extension of his contract before the competition [the World Cup in Qatar]”.

The former president of the EAG and mayor of Guingamp preferred to be cautious about a possible extension of Deschamps, whose contract expires after the World Cup.

It is in this sense that Le Graët modified the calendar which initially provided for the federal assembly of the FFF in mid-November.

“Let’s wait for the World Cup, he announced to our colleagues.

This is why I changed the date of the federal assembly.

I put it on at the beginning of January.

It is better to do analyzes after the World Cup than before… If we win, we will take out the paperclips.

But if we lost, we may have to discuss.

The message is clear.
