The deadline is coming to an end soon. Last Thursday, the FFF indicated that the commission responsible for the succession of Corinne Deacon had eight to ten days to make a “recommendation” to interim president Philippe Diallo. Several names, recognized in women’s football, were quickly mentioned, such as PSG coach Gérard Prêcheur, Patrice Lair or Sonia Bompastor. Since then, others, a little less expected, have come to feed the reflections.
Gourvennec’s “very detailed” project
The newspaper The Team thus evokes this Thursday those of Thierry Henry and Jocelyn Gourvennec. The first would represent the “charisma” and the “leadership” requested by Jean-Michel Aulas, member of the commission in charge of this file, when he had drawn up the robot portrait of the ideal candidate. His name has been put forward in recent days by “several leaders of the FFF”, reports the daily. Who specifies, however, that we do not know at this stage if the former assistant to Roberto Martinez at the head of Belgium and ephemeral coach of Monaco is interested in the job.
Gourvennec, he has already received by the commission. Not discussed at the end of last season by Losc, with whom he had played in the Champions League, the technician presented “a very detailed project” for the Blue. Advantage for him, Eric Blahic, former assistant to Deacon and appreciated by the players, has already worked with him at Guingamp and Bordeaux. Why not a third time?
