A little rest for the big rais. Didier Deschamps will not be traveling to Hamburg to attend the draw for Euro 2024, which will take place next summer in Germany. The Blues coach must remain on rest after having had back surgery and will therefore exceptionally follow the festivities in front of his television.
Suffering from “back pain for several weeks”, the technician was operated on Tuesday evening and cannot “travel for a few days”, it is specified. His deputy Guy Stéphan will be present at the Elbphilharmonie of the great Hanseatic port to find out the opponents of the tricolors in the first round.
DD sad to have to give it up
“It was not with pleasure that I decided not to go to the draw. It’s always a pleasant moment during which I have a lot of pleasure talking with my counterparts,” explained “DD” in the press release from the French Football Federation (FFF).
“But wisdom dictated that we respect a few days of rest,” he added. “I will obviously follow the draw on television with great attention. “Once our group is known, we will be able to validate the choice of our base camp and begin to study in detail the game of our future opponents, even if we generally know everyone well,” concluded Deschamps
