One Last Crazy Rumor Points To The Future Of Zinedine Zidane

Zinedine Zidane’s name is still very much in the news. His good work at the helm of Real Madrid has led to a flurry of reports about his future and now a strange path appears on the horizon.

Zinedine Zidane is a common name when talking about potential managers for various top-level clubs.

The protagonist of two sensational winning cycles at the helm of Real Madrid, the French coach arouses passions both inside and outside Europe.

Since he left the Santiago Bernabéu, there has been talk of him as a possible tenant of benches such as Paris Saint Germain, Bayern Munich or Juventus.

The French national team deserves a special mention, where his name always floats around as a possible alternative to Didier Deschamps in the event of his departure.

Saudi Arabia is eyeing Zinedine Zidane

Recently, a new possibility has emerged, as reported by Corriere Della Sera. The Saudi Arabian national team views Zinedine Zidane as an ideal coach.

Following recent setbacks, including a loss to Japan (0-2) and a draw against Bahrain (0-0), questions about Roberto Mancini’s future have intensified.

With his contract potentially being terminated for a sum between 25 and 30 million, the Saudi team is actively seeking replacements, and Zidane is among the frontrunners.

However, Zidane is not the only name in consideration; other candidates include Argentine Ramón Díaz, currently managing Corinthians, and Frenchman Hervé Renard, who previously led the Saudi team during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
