Zidane Reveals Dream To Coach French National Team and Mbappe
Zinedine Zidane has made it clear: his biggest dream is to become the next head coach of France, a move that could lead him to manage Kylian Mbappé in the near future.
Dream Role After Leaving Real Madrid
Since stepping down from Real Madrid, Zidane has remained without a club, turning down multiple coaching opportunities across Europe. His reasons are now clearer than ever — he is focused on one goal: managing Les Bleus, the French national team he once led as a player to World Cup glory.
In a recent statement, the Marseille-born manager reiterated his aspiration to coach France. “It would be a dream,” he said, underscoring his readiness to take on the role whenever the opportunity arises.
With Didier Deschamps expected to step down after the 2026 World Cup, speculation is mounting that Zidane could be the natural successor on the French bench.
Coaching Mbappé, A National Fantasy
Should he land the job, Zidane would get the chance to work with Kylian Mbappé, now the star of Real Madrid and arguably the biggest name in French football. Fans and pundits alike are excited by the prospect of this potential pairing, believing that Zidane's calm leadership and tactical prowess are a perfect match for a new golden generation of French talent.
With three Champions League titles as a coach and a World Cup as a player, Zidane brings the experience and pedigree that could take France to even greater heights.
The potential of seeing Zidane guiding Mbappé and company on the international stage is already fueling excitement across the nation. If the stars align, this could be one of the most iconic coach-player duos in football history.
