France coach Blanc backed by federation in racism row

PARIS, May 12 (Reuters) - France coach Laurent Blanc has kept his job after being cleared of wrongdoing by an investigation into a discrimination row that has shaken French football, the country's soccer federation said on Thursday.



"The federal council renews its confidence in Laurent Blanc," FFF president Fernand Duchaussoy told a news conference at the federation's headquarters.

Blanc attended a meeting in November at which members of the federation discussed the idea of enforcing limits on black and Arab players in youth academies.
