The French Football Federation will announce its decision on the future of coach Raymond Domenech on July 3, according to a statement on its official website.

Domenech’s job is reportedly on the line after the two-time European Champions crashed out of Euro 2008 at the group stage following a 2-0 loss to Italy. The defeat left Les Bleus at the bottom of Group C with just one point from their three matches, and just one goal scored.

The FFF will now look at the performance of the national team over the last four years before announcing its decision at its next meeting. “No rash decision on the future direction of the French team will be taken,” the federation said. “It is necessary to take the time to analyse in the cold light of day the reasons and consequences of this elimination from Euro 2008 and to carry out a review of the work done over the last four years.

“President Jean-Pierre Escalettes will see Raymond Domenech at length. He will then submit his conclusions and proposals to the federal council, whose next meeting is scheduled for Thursday, July 3. We will not make any further comments on the subject before then.”
