France coach Didier Deschamps is confident that Zinedine Zidane will take charge of Les Bleus sooner or later.
Deschamps was the man behind France's 2018 World Cup win, but he knows that his time on the bench won't last forever.
"The next coach could be Zizou," he said when asked by Le Monde about Zidane's candidacy for the role when it's next vacant.
"At one point or another, it'll be him."
But Deschamps - who recently signed a new contract that'll run to 2022 - is focused on the job he has at hand for now, and he's not worried about anything other than results.
"When you're a coach there's no age limit," he added.
"It's the results that make you last."
Naturally, he was asked about Karim Benzema, but was short with his response.
"That's no longer an issue for me," he concluded.
