Didier Deschamps parle d’un « environnement » devenu « irrespirable » avec les Bleus
A farewell. A very emotional Didier Deschamps sat down with M6 for his final interview as manager of the French national team. This last interview came after a dramatic 4-6 defeat to England in the World Cup third-place match, a defeat he didn't discuss during the nearly fifteen-minute interview, and – good news for him – one he won't need to discuss at all: "I refuse to talk about the French national team from tonight onwards," he explained, citing a "duty of discretion."
Not a premature departure
The now former coach of Les Bleus took the opportunity to talk about his departure from a team that he places "above all else" and that does not "belong to him": "I was at its service on a mission for 14 years," summarized the man who now sees himself as "a silent supporter."
Regarding his decision to retire, Didier Deschamps believes it was a "controlled" one: "If I decided [to stop], it wasn't for myself, I tell you sincerely, it was for the good of the French national team. I may not have said it before, but I'll tell you honestly, it wasn't for myself that I made this decision. Because the environment was so unbearable for me, and the French national team doesn't deserve that."
He, who "doesn't rule anything out" regarding his future, nevertheless confirmed that it will be in football: "I'm not going to become a pastry chef or a politician or anything else."
