He's a part of FIFA's Technical Study group, apparentally. http://www.fifa.com/aboutfifa/footballdevelopment/technicalsupport/technicalstudygroup/index.html

And this from an interview with him about a month ago:http://en.fifo-tahiti.com/2013/02/christian-karembeu-perpetuating-history/

You retired from the professional world of football in 2005. What is your main activity now?

C.K.: I belong to the football commission at FIFA. We discuss laws, we try to regulate them, notably with regard to everything involving transfers and umpiring...We try to make the game more attractive, more commercial. I am also an ambassador of the Champions League for the UEFA, with which I tour worldwide. I also have my own activities in the textile industry and artisanal bakery in the United States.

So he doesn't sound like a real runner in the coaching stakes.
