The putsch launched by Wendie Renard and fatal to Corinne Deacon was not to the taste of all French players as evidenced by the comments made this Sunday by Sakina Karchaoui.
Four months before the start of the World Cup in Australia and New Zealand, the France team is still without a coach. Consequence of the dismissal of Corinne Deacon. In office since 2017, the Northerner did not resist the revolt led by Wendie Renard and followed by several other French players including Marie-Antoinette Katoto and Kadidiatou Diani.
The way of doing the tricolor captain and his cronies nevertheless provoked strong reactions. And not just with coaches. Some Blue did not appreciate this pillorying of Corinne Deacon either. “If we can settle things internally before exposing them to the general public knowing that there are younger generations watching us… We must send a strong signal about good behavior”Sakina Karchaoui told AFP.
Everything was rolling on my side…
However, the side of the PSG ensures to understand “the decisions of some”, “They spoke because they were forced to show their discomfort, she continued. Maybe if I had been in their shoes, I would have done the same. » Because the former Montpellier woman assures her: she personally had absolutely nothing to reproach Corinne Deacon. “Everything was rolling on my side, so I couldn’t see myself speaking up to simply follow a movement”, she confided.
But the fact that the Parisian player has Jean-Pierre Bernès as an agent, the same as Corinne Deacon, did not help to fire red balls at the coach… “Not speaking in public does not mean that we don’t speak internally: we have exchanges, we talk, everyone gives their opinion”, she took care to specify. The next few weeks promise to be hectic for Les Bleues.
