French football legend Zinedine Zidane has reportedly agreed to become the next head coach of the French national team on a contract running until June 2030.
Football transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano disclosed the development across his social media platforms on Tuesday, stating that the former Real Madrid manager has signed his contract and is expected to be officially unveiled in the coming days.
“Zinedine Zidane has signed as the new France coach until June 2030. The story has been confirmed as Zizou will be unveiled as the new head coach in the next days — back to work with France,” Romano wrote.
He added that Zidane is expected to lead France in the 2027 UEFA Nations League, UEFA Euro 2028 and the 2030 FIFA World Cup.
Zidane, 54, has been out of management since leaving Real Madrid in 2021 following his second spell in charge of the Spanish club.
