Very isolated and criticized since the announcement of the withdrawal from the France team of Wendie Renard, followed by several other internationals (Marie-Antoinette Katoto, Kadidiatou Diani, Perle Morroni and Griedge Mbock), Corinne Deacon has received the support of the union of French coaches. The National Union of Coaches and Technical Managers of French Football (UNECATEF) forgot a press release on Monday:
“Courage Corinne, behind you, what is attacked is also the coaching function that is targeted,” writes UNECATEF in a press release. You are not alone in this ordeal, the whole brotherhood, with Unecatef, feels bruised. It is easy to understand that players are demanding to improve their working conditions. Blackmail for non-participation in a World Cup is not audible! Because in this case, it is indeed a blackmail “it’s her or me”. It is the door open to all excesses with disastrous consequences”, writes UNECATEF.
Aulas is campaigning for his departure
The Comex of the FFF this Tuesday, February 28 will have to position itself, in addition to the future of Noël Le Graët, on this crisis which affects the French women’s team. In the team, Jean-Michel Aulas, the president of Lyon and member of the Comex clearly supported his player Wendie Renard to the detriment of the coach.
“Corinne Deacon has been there for six years, there have been ups and downs, underlines Aulas. Personally, I have the impression that we have moved forward in a situation of no return. When we see the management of this French team, we see that it is not at all comparable to other major European teams. I know that we have the best players in Europe, perhaps in the world, and we can’t get results. The Comex must look carefully at the situation and make decisions. This seems to me to be mandatory if we want to respect the messages sent. »
