Hervé Renard responds to Algeria Coaching rumors, affirms commitment to French Women’s Team
Hervé Renard, the current coach of the French women’s national team, has responded to the swirling rumors linking him to the position of the Algeria national team’s head coach, currently held by Djamel Belmadi. While Belmadi’s future at the helm of the Algerian team remains uncertain, speculations about his potential successor have been rife, with Hervé Renard’s name prominently in the mix.
In addressing the ongoing rumors, Renard politely declined the proposition, stating, «I thank the Algerians for their interest in me, but I am focused on the French women’s team until August 2024».
This clear statement from the experienced coach signals his commitment to his current role, steering the French women’s squad, at least until the specified timeframe.
Despite Renard’s apparent dedication to his current position, he left a slight window open for potential discussions in the future.
By expressing his gratitude for the interest shown by the Algerians and specifying his focus until August 2024, Hervé Renard neither outright rejected nor firmly committed to the idea of coaching the Algerian national team.
The ongoing speculation around the Algeria national team coaching role includes other notable names such as Christophe Gourcuff and the prospect of Vahid Halilhodzic making a return.
However, the dream scenario for many Algerian football enthusiasts remains the potential arrival of Zinédine Zidane.
Although it may seem like a lofty aspiration, Zidane himself, in the early stages of his coaching career, expressed a willingness to contribute to his country of origin if the opportunity arose.
The future of the Algerian national team’s coaching position continues to be a topic of keen interest and speculation.
