Didier Deschamps, without a position since the end of his time as France manager, is set to join Dubai as part of new professional projects.

The former France coach, who left his post after leading France to the top of world football, has not remained inactive for long. The precise details of his Dubai engagement have not yet been disclosed, but his destination confirms a marked interest in the Gulf region, which has become an essential hub for world football in recent years.

At 57, Deschamps remains one of the most respected figures in European football. His record as France manager — a World Cup title in 2018, a World Cup final in 2022 and Euro 2024 — gives him considerable credibility on the international stage. A reputation that no doubt explains the interest shown in him by football stakeholders in emerging markets such as the United Arab Emirates.
