After the 2026 World Cup, a page will turn. Didier Deschamps' future will be at the heart of all discussions. And an option, which seems obvious for many, has just been swept away by one of its closest confidantes.
Didier Deschamps' post-blue is a fantasy for many leaders. Which one would not dream of attracting a coach with such a prize list? Paris Saint-Germain, with its financial power and devouring ambition, seems a possible destination. However, this option would absolutely not be on the table. And it is not a simple rumor, it is a confidence delivered by his thirty -year -old friend, the host Nagui.
Deschamps is targeting a new challenge, far from PSG
In an interview with ParisianNagui was very clear: “I don't see him at PSG after Luis Enrique. »» The reason has nothing to do with OM-PSG rivalry, a detail for a pragmatic like Deschamps. The reason is much deeper and revealing of the character. According to his friend, Deschamps “Would be more interested in building a story and succeeding in unimaginable than to prolong something.” Succeeding a coach who won everything, including the first club champions league, does not interest him.
This is the whole mentality of Deschamps. Man is not a manager, he is a builder. He wants a challenge, a project from zero, as he did in Monaco, Juventus or Marseille. He wants to leave his own imprint, not walk in the footsteps of another. We remember that the marriage between PSG and Deschamps had almost been done in 2008, just before his arrival at OM. The timing was not the right one. Today, the project is no longer.
The future of Deschamps? Not in Paris, warns Nagui
Italy or France, but not anywhere
So where will he go? Nagui sketches tracks. England, despite rumors, seems to be dismissed: “Given his English, it cannot be in England!” “, he has fun. He would rather see it in Italy or in France, but in a club where he could raise a “New bet”. No question, therefore, of going back to one of his former clubs.
This confidence is rich in lessons. She shows a Didier Deschamps always animated by the same hunger to defeat, the same desire to put yourself in danger. At 56, after winning everything, he does not seek comfort, but the challenge. PSG will therefore have to seek elsewhere. And Deschamps, after 2026, will look for a new project to its measure.
