His future remains up in the air. After the lightning elimination of the Blues, from the first round of the World Cup in India, the president of the Federation Jean-Pierre Siutat, and the manager Boris Diaw explained that he had not yet decided the fate of coach Vincent Collet. “For the moment, there is no decision made on anyone, including Vincent Collet,” Diaw said during a press briefing. We are all questioned, we can all be questioned, anyone from the staff, every year, we have always worked like that. But, at present, this is not the case. »

On October 10, the federation has agreed to meet to draw conclusions from the summer results of the French teams. The Collet case “is part of the file to be opened and closed on October 10, said Siutat. We won’t put dust under the rug. “Vincent Collet will therefore have to wait until this date to be certain of leading the Blues during the Paris Olympics.

For Jacques Monclar, it would be a mistake to separate from the coach who has been in office since 2009. “He remains the best coach in history. He led 276 matches with a 70% winning percentage and won 7 international medals. Replace it ? OK but to put who? “The coach in these cases is always in the hot seat, but everyone has to look at themselves in the mirror: players, federated to explain this failure in large widths”, he had analyzed.

After having painfully beaten Lebanon, the Blues will face Iran, this Thursday, for the last match of the group stage.
