And yeah, I said, you're right.

Now I need to, I need to honor my promise.

So in 2018, the day before the final on the 14th of July, he sent me a text and told me, don't remember, you said you're going to win it.

And he didn't even mention it, the whole competition.

And yeah, I felt like it was, yeah, I don't know, not destiny, but I felt like, give me some confidence.

When you then came across, and let's not forget, Didier Deschamps was then your manager, but he was a hugely important part of 98.

And that French team Zidane is obviously with iconic figures in world football, not just French football.

When you then met them for the first time, did you go back to being that 11-year-old boy seeing your heroes or was it more professional?

When I met Deschamps?

Yeah.

Well, I played against him when he was a Marseille manager.

When he was Marseille manager, I think we won the league with Montpellier in 2012.

We lost the final to Marseille also in 2011, the League Cup final in Stade de France.

So yeah, I had two good years in Montpellier and I think he knew me from that period.

But yeah, so much respect for Didier Deschamps.

He did win everything and he's got that aura, you know, in France and he's one of the main man of the national team.

Yeah, I felt like when I first arrived in national team, it was Laurent Blanc.

Laurent Blanc was also called the President.

Don't ask me why, I don't remember, but, you know, big personality, charismatic person.

Yeah, charismatic person.
