Saudi Arabia approach France manager Didier Deschamps over post-2026 project
1
According to Sacha Tavolieri, representatives of the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund (PIF) have made initial contact with the entourage of France manager Didier Deschamps over a potential move to Saudi Arabia after the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
While the approach remains at a very early stage, the intent behind the move is clear: the Saudi football authorities are keen to gauge Deschamps’ openness to managing in the Saudi Pro League once his time in charge of Les Bleus comes to an end.
