Jouffre has already participated in the recent training camp of the Green, which took place in September in the Czech Republic, where he oversaw several training sessions dedicated to set-pieces.

The French coach is preparing to continue his work with the national team in the upcoming phase, as he will be present in the qualifiers for the decisive Asian playoff towards the next World Cup.
