Didier Six
Didier Six (born 21 August 1954) is a French football manager and former player, who most recently worked as manager of the Guinea national football team until October 2021.
A gifted but inconsistent winger, Six had a rather nomadic career, playing in five countries. He also played for France in the 1978 and 1982 FIFA World Cups, and was also part of the winning team at Euro 84.
Six began his playing career at Division 2 side Valenciennes, making his debut at the age of 17 in 1972. He helped Les Athéniens achieve promotion to the top flight in 1975, which was followed by a remarkable season where they finished tenth, and Six finished as the top scorer at the club with 12 goals.
After turning down offers from Ajax, Borussia Dortmund and Feyenoord, Six decided to join Lens in 1977, where he spent a single season, notably scoring a hattrick against Lazio in the UEFA Cup. Lens were relegated at the end of 1977-78 and Six would be made the scapegoat. This was followed by two more disappointing years playing for Marseille, after which his career would become nomadic in the years that followed, playing in Belgium, Germany, England and Turkey.
He acquired Turkish citizenship in order to play as a domestic player at Galatasaray, playing under the name Dündar Siz. There he won the Turkish First League championship in 1987–88 season.
He ended his career in 1992 after a two-year spell in the newly re-unified 2.Bundesliga with VfB Leipzig.
Six was first selected for the France national football team by manager Michel Hidalgo whilst still at Valenciennes, making his debut on 27 March 1976 against Czechoslovakia, the same game in which Michel Platini made his debut.
He played as a winger and he earned 52 caps and scored 13 goals for the France national football team. He played in the 1978 FIFA World Cup and the 1982 FIFA World Cup, and was also part of the winning team at Euro 84.
