About Corinne Diacre

Corinne Catherine Diacre (born 4 August 1974) is a French professional football manager and former player who played as a defender. She played her entire club career with Soyaux in the Division 1. She was also an international player with the France national team from 1993 to 2005, captaining the team for much of that period.

In August 2014, she became the first woman to coach a men's professional football team (Clermont) in a competitive match in France.

Diacre’s tenure with France was notably marred with controversies.
