Mohamed Sanhaji on Deschamps Mbappé and Zidane
French newspaper reports have revealed disagreements between the French national team and the French Football Federation during the 2026 World Cup, stemming from an attempt to exclude security official Mohamed Sanhaji. Sanhaji has held his position since 2004 and is strongly supported by Zinedine Zidane, the expected coach of the team. A vacancy in the security department was announced prior to the start of the training camp, which angered coach Didier Deschamps and the players—especially since Sanhaji had been previously punished following an illegal donation made by Kylian Mbappe in 2022. Nonetheless, he was temporarily retained before the World Cup. Zidane insists on keeping him despite the federation's desire to exclude him, which could lead to a new confrontation between the coach and the federation's management after the tournament, which ended with France finishing in fourth place.
