After the Amandine Henry-Corinne Diacre clash in 2020, it's time for the one between Wendie Renard and the coach of the France team. The emblematic captain of OL and Les Bleues has just announced his withdrawal from the selection this Friday, in a message posted on social networks that serves as a thunderclap. In the wake of a sad France Tournament, won Tuesday without removing the slightest doubt about the game project and the choices of Corinne Diacre, Wendie Renard questions it, without naming it.

Given the current crisis at the French Football Federation (FFF), this file promises to be complicated to unblock.



But seeing how a player as unifying as Wendie Renard is exhausted, the situation could quickly become untenable for Corinne Diacre, who has never obtained better than a semi-finalist place (at Euro 2022), since her appointment in 2017. "This is a sad day but necessary to preserve my mental health, continues Wendie Renard in her message. I don't want to suffer anymore. »
