After having been in competition with singers, in the 2000s thanks to Zinedine Zidane, sportsmen have less and less the coast in France.
Twice a year, the Sunday newspaper publishes the ranking of the 25 favorite personalities of the French according to the information collected by a survey Ifop. In its new edition, there are only four athletes left; Teddy Riner, Zinedine Zidane, Kylian Mbappé and finally Didier Deschamps.
Teddy Riner, the judoka who occupied the podium (3rd) in 2017, remains well ranked this year (8th). He is followed by Zinedine Zidane (12e) and Kylian Mbappé (19e). Didier Deschamps, the coach of the France team, occupies the 22e place of this popularity ranking. If among the men, there are four athletes, this is far from the case among the women. No athlete is part of the ranking of the 25 favorite female personalities of the French.
