Guy Roux Makes Headlines Again — This Time for Nodding Off During Deschamps’ Press Conference
At 76, legendary coach Guy Roux is still making waves — though not always for the reasons you’d expect. Just days after a memorable tumble on Laurent Ruquier’s show on France 2, Roux has now become a social media sensation in Brazil… for dozing off during Didier Deschamps’ World Cup press conference!
Known affectionately as “Papy Roux,” the former AJ Auxerre mastermind and longtime TF1 consultant appeared visibly tired while listening to France’s coach. The moment, caught on camera, quickly went viral.
What did Roux miss? Deschamps’ thoughtful reflections on France’s 3-0 win over Honduras, emphasizing patience, clear-headedness, and the need to keep improving despite the positive start.
At 76, it seems even legends need their rest—especially during a busy World Cup!
