France manager Didier Deschamps has revealed that their attention is to win the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
Recall that France will battle Argentina in tonight’s 2022 World Cup final.
However, Deschamps is aiming to become just the second manager to win successive World Cups after Les Bleus’ triumph in 2018.
He also said there was no update on a virus in the French camp, but confirmed all players had trained.
“We are trying to live with it, without going too far and getting carried away, but doing what is necessary,” he said.
Deschamps, who also captained France to victory in 1998, was asked whether his squad’s injuries, the virus and the “will for Messi to win” had left him feeling “alone in the world”.
“I often get that feeling,” he replied. “But I am fine being alone. That doesn’t bother me.
“I don’t have any particular worries or stress about the game. When you prepare for a game like this you need to keep your focus, remain composed, but, of course, in a World Cup final especially you have the match and the whole context behind that.
“Of course, the objective is to come out with the title.
“I know Argentina and many people around the world, and maybe some French people as well, would hope that Lionel Messi could win the World Cup, but we’re going to do everything to achieve our objective.”
