In May 2012, Chishimba Kambwili, the Zambian sports minister, announced he expected Renard to sign a new contract by the end of the month.[15]

After Zambia were eliminated from the group stages of the 2013 African Cup of Nations, Renard said that it was his fault.[16] He later criticised CAF for not allowing Zambia, as the 2012 winners of the AFCON, the chance to compete at the 2013 Confederations Cup.[17]
