Descahmps guided France to World Cup success in 2018 while they lost to Argentina on penalties four years later in the final.
Zidane has been rumoured to a potential replacement for Deschamps, with Mbappe now publicly giving his support for the former Los Blancos coach.
"The Federation will decide. Zidane was the idol of all children, he forever marked the history of the French national team and will remain in the hearts of the French people." Mbappe told TF1.
"My love for him is unquestionable. If he comes, it will be a great pleasure and I will be very happy.
"Everyone knows there's a name floating around. It's not in my hands. It would be better to interview the President, Philippe Diallo (laughs). I try not to talk about it; that's not my role."
