"(The federation) has acknowledged the difficulties of the
captain to ... get the best out of the best players," the FFT
said in a statement.
Clement, who took Les Bleus to the 2014 final, had a contract
until the end of the 2016 season.
Cedric Pioline and Yannick Noah, the last French man to win a
grand slam title in 1983 at the French Open, are among the
favorites to take over from Clement.
Clement, who won the Davis Cup as a player in 2001, started his
stint as captain in 2013.
