Zinedine Zidane, a former manager of Real Madrid, is reportedly planning to continue his coaching career beginning with the 2024/25 season in the hopes of securing a decent position, according to a story that has come from Mundo Deportivo. This information is somewhat shocking.
The magazine also claims, which is rather interesting, that the former France midfielder is not completely ruling out the idea of rejoining Real Madrid once again.
If Carlo Ancelotti does not decide to extend his contract, he would be more than pleased to have the opportunity to return to the capital of Spain.
The table is laden with a multitude of options.
After almost three years have passed since Zidane’s final departure from Real Madrid for the second time, he is quite enthusiastic about the prospect of returning to the coaching profession.
Now, it is important to point out that despite the fact that he has been absent from the field, he has been actively participating in several other professional pursuits.
He came quite close to signing for Paris Saint-Germain in 2022, just after Mauricio Pochettino had left his position as manager of the club. Furthermore, the French national team seemed to be a viable destination; nevertheless, Didier Deschamps made the decision to extend his contract after considering the possibility.
Despite the fact that Zidane has examined options with numerous big European teams and even pondered the thought of returning to Marseille, it is stated that he has a long-term goal of coaching his national team at some point in his life.
No, Zidane has responded, but things are going to change.
At this time, Zidane has chosen not to pursue any of these opportunities; however, this decision is just temporary since he has made the decision to return to the coaching arena.
The re-entry is scheduled to take place during the 2024-2025 season, and at that time, he hopes to assume the position of head coach at one of the most prestigious teams in Europe.
Real Madrid, the club where he had unprecedented success as a coach, with a stunning collection of 11 trophies throughout two tenures, including three consecutive UEFA Champions League wins, is not omitted from his thoughts. For example, he won three consecutive victories in the Champions League.
Nevertheless, everything is dependent on the decision that Ancelotti makes. At this time, there is nothing that can be considered solid.
Despite the fact that the Brazilian association is certain that they will be able to get him, the manager has refuted any and all reports that have been linked to the South American squad.
