Zidane on his France project: I'll rely on Real Madrid staff with some additions

French coach Zinedine Zidane has unveiled the first outlines of his technical project after officially taking the reins of the France national team, confirming that the coaching staff accompanying him will be very similar to the team he worked with during his historic period at Real Madrid, with some minor adjustments.

Zinedine Zidane, during his presentation as coach of the "Les Bleus", stated: "My coaching staff with the French national team will be similar to the one that worked with me at Real Madrid, with the addition of two or three people." This reflects his desire to maintain harmony and trust with the technical team that achieved great success with him in the Spanish capital.

The coaching staff is expected to include several names that accompanied Zidane during his time at Real Madrid, most notably his historic assistant David Bettoni, along with some new elements that will join to meet the demands of working with the French national team in the upcoming phase.

The French Football Federation has officially announced the appointment of Zinedine Zidane as the head coach of the national team, with a contract extending until 2030, succeeding Didier Deschamps. The hope is that he will lead the "Les Bleus" into a new era of success, leveraging his vast experience, which includes three consecutive Champions League titles with Real Madrid.
