According to the source, Deschamps himself wanted to continue working with the team even earlier, realizing that by Euro 2024 he would be able to maintain the current squad, which has a combination of star youth and experienced players. Reaching the semi-finals of the World Cup further influenced this situation.

Before the tournament, the president of the local football federation, Noel Le Gret, said that it was Deschamps who would decide on his future.

There were rumors that in the event of Didier's dismissal, Zinedine Zidane was to lead the national team.
