Zidane Informs Real Madrid Players of His Next Step

Frenchman Zinedine Zidane, the former coach of Real Madrid, spoke about his future with the players of the royal team. Real Madrid officially announced Zidane's departure from coaching the team on Thursday, a year before the end of his contract. According to the Spanish network "Defensa Central," Zidane informed the Real Madrid players that he would be leaving, seeking to lead another project immediately in the upcoming season. The Spanish network noted that Zidane told the players he does not intend to take a sabbatical for a year before returning to the coaching world, as he explained that he had to leave the royal club due to the pressures he faced during this season and the failure to win any titles, stating that the club will need a deep revolution, which is difficult for him to carry out. Many reports have claimed that Zidane is linked to taking the managerial position at Juventus, Paris Saint-Germain, or the French national team in the upcoming season. Notably, Zidane departed Real Madrid after a trophy-less season, where the royal team lost the titles of La Liga, the Copa del Rey, the Supercopa, and the UEFA Champions League.
