What a week for the French Football Federation and its (probable) future ex-president Noël Le Graët!
After the XXL crack of the boss of the FFF on the airwaves of RMC about Zinédine Zidane, the national body found itself in a media-political tornado which led the executive committee, under pressure from the Minister of Sports Amélie Oudéa-Catséra, to set back the Breton leader.
Pending the conclusions of the internal audit launched by the ministry, Vice-President Philippe Diallo will act as interim head of 3F.
If the conclusions of the audit prove to be against NLG, the latter would then have no choice but to resign purely and simply.
It remains to be seen what impact this new scandal will have on the institution in the short and medium term, which did not come out unscathed from this incredible episode.
