A bombshell announcement is in the works. While Jean-Louis Gasset leaves Ivory Coast after a disappointing first-round defeat against Equatorial Guinea (0-4), the Ivorian federation hopes to try to strike a final blow to revive its team from the round of 16. Return Hervé Renard for the rest of the competition.
The goal is not to remove her from the French women’s team, with which she is under contract until August 2024 for the Olympics, but to include her in the short term. In this case, the French Federation will have to give its contract but in case of possible success, this decision will have a positive impact for the FFF on the continent.
The eighth match against Senegal is scheduled for Monday
The Ivorian Federation also went on the attack. She contacted her French counterpart. Time is running out if FIF president Idriss Diallo is to complete his project as Côte d’Ivoire face Senegal, the reigning champions, in the round of 16 on Monday evening (9 pm).
But in the land of elephants, which has invested millions of euros in the organization of this event, the 2015 African champion is expected to be the savior. The objective is to create an electric shock after the devastating departure of the selection, while it is Emerse Faé who must sit on the bench after the departure of Gasset. Renard, for his part, remained unfathomable.
Ivory Coast (2015), former coach of Morocco (2016-2019) after CAN winner with Zambia (2012), Renard still knows well all the teams in the competition, their strengths and weaknesses. CAN can experience an unimaginable scenario if FFF accepts this extraordinary freelance.
