Didier Deschamps stepped down from his role earlier this month after 14 years, following France's semi-final exit from the World Cup after a 2-0 defeat to European champions Spain. Zidane, who had been without a managerial position since leaving Real Madrid in 2021, was widely anticipated to succeed Deschamps.
