France legend Zinedine Zidane is set to be officially unveiled as the new head coach of the French national team next Tuesday, marking the beginning of a new era for Les Bleus after the end of Didier Deschamps' 14-year reign.
According to reports, Zidane will sign a four-year contract that will keep him in charge until the 2030 FIFA World Cup.
The appointment will see the 54-year-old return to coaching for the first time since leaving Real Madrid following his second spell in charge of the Spanish giants in 2021.
Zidane succeeds Deschamps, who has led France since 2012, overseeing one of the most successful periods in the national team's history.
The former Real Madrid boss enjoyed remarkable success at club level, winning multiple major trophies, including three consecutive UEFA Champions League titles, and now takes on his first international coaching role.
His appointment is expected to usher in a fresh chapter for France as the national team prepares for the upcoming international competitions under one of the country's greatest football icons.
