A new biography of coach of the 2018 World Cup-winning French team

Didier Deschamps was both captain of the only French team to win the Champion’s League when playing for Marseille in 1993, and captain of les Bleus when they won the 1998 World Cup and the 2000 Euros.

Then as a coach, he lead Monaco into the finals of the 2004 Champion’s League after having helped Juventus Turin rise in ranks in the Italian Serie A. Next, it is under his leadership that Olympique de Marseille became French champions, a title that has eluded that for 18 years.

When he was promoted as head coach for the French national team, Deschamps quickly brought stability back to Les Bleus as well as the World Cup title.

This biography is the story of his remarkable destiny become the third person in history to win the World Cup both as a player and as a coach.

Philippe Grand is the managing editor of the Sports section for the Courrier Picard. He has written several books on football.
