In an interview with Téléfoot on Sunday, the French striker returned to the management of the France team and its coach Corinne Deacon.
The noose is tightening around the coach of the France team, Corinne Deacon. While Wendie Renard, Kadidiatou Diani and Marie-Antoinette Katoto announced, on February 24, their withdrawal from the selection, Kadidiatou Diani spoke on Sunday March 5 in Téléfoot, on TF1. The PSG striker points to the delicate management in the operation of the women’s selection four months before the World Cup. “I find that we lack professionalism in the France team. Today, we find ourselves with a fairly small staff.she complains.
Since the release of Wendie Renard, the staff of the France team is more than questioned and the Parisian striker evokes problems in terms of communication. “It seems complicated to me to move towards the same objective when we have in front of us a person who is quite closed, who does not want to discuss with his captain“, she says about Corinne Deacon.
“The FFF must take action”
As the World Cup looms, the retired blue locker room executives are waiting for change. “If, today, I decided to speak, to speak, it is really for a collective purpose. Because today, there may be girls who don’t think less about it but who don’t necessarily dare to speak, because of their status”.
Already plunged into the crisis since the resignation of Noël Le Graët, the French Football Federation is also being undermined with this affair which further weakens the place of Corinne Deacon. “The FFF must take action. We raised a cry of alarm. We shared our feelings. I think they will study our case and take it seriously to move our team forward. I think it’s important to have something new, because the girls simply can’t take it anymore. They don’t necessarily express themselves, but that’s really the case, that’s what really happens in the France team”, alert the international tricolor.
Kadidiatou Diani, who has 82 caps with Les Bleues, has not communicated with the coach since her decision: “I think we have reached a point of no return. So, here, for me, if we want to talk about a breakup, then I will talk about a breakup.” Challenged by several of her executives, Corinne Deacon should see her fate fixed on March 9 by the FFF.
