France fires Corinne Diacre as women’s football team coach
France Women’s Football team coach, Corinne Diacre has been sacked as the coach of the team as announced on Thursday after her position was weakened following a revolt by leading players.
The 48-year-old coach has her contract to 2024 but was under pressure after captain Wendie Renard announced last month that she would no longer play for the team, with fellow stars Kadidiatou Diani and Marie-Antoinette Katoto following suit.
The FFF said problems within the squad had become “irreversible” and therefore “decided to bring an end to Corinne Diacre’s job as the head of the France women’s team.”
