Zinedine Zidane Named France Head Coach

Zinedine Zidane was unveiled as the new coach of the French national team on Tuesday, signing a four-year deal to succeed Didier Deschamps.

The 1998 World Cup winner and former Real Madrid coach described the role as the only one he desired, calling it a dream come true.

Zidane's appointment follows a five-year hiatus from coaching and comes with high expectations to revive a team that has struggled since their 2018 World Cup triumph.

He greeted cheering fans outside the French Football Federation headquarters.
