Djorkaeff in line for Zidane role

France coach Roger Lemerre thinks veteran Bolton schemer Youri Djorkaeff is a ready-made replacement for playmaker Zinedine Zidane who has been ruled out of their World Cup opener against Senegal on Friday.

Zidane misses the start of their campaign for back-to-back titles and faces a race against time to be fit for the next match on June 6 with Uruguay in Busan.
