12:35 – Zidane getting closer and closer

According to information from RMC Sport released this Friday, June 10, the football legend is close to an agreement with the capital club, once again champion of France this season.

According to information from the Parisian, a meeting was organized during the second week of the All Saints holidays. But according to the Spanish press, AS in particular, “Zizou” would not necessarily intend to take control of the PSG team. Le Parisien explains that the first contacts were made during the summer of 2021, but without a convincing result, the former playmaker wanting to rest. An internal source from Qatar would push for the former Real coach. “At Barça or Real, it doesn’t happen like that… With a coach who is used to managing the stars, it wouldn’t happen like that…”

Zidane’s career reached a new stage in 2001, when he was transferred to Real Madrid during the summer. The cost of this transfer breaks all records with an amount of approximately 506 million francs (more than 77 million euros) for a period of four years. With this new team, he won the Champions League in 2002. In the final match against Bayer Leverkusen, he scored a memorable goal for a right-hander (left foot volley). With Real, Zidane will confirm his stature as a contender for the title of best player in the world of the moment: he will win the UEFA Super Cup and the Intercontinental Cup in the same year. We can add to this list a title of Spanish champion and a supercup the same year (2003).

The passage of Zidane by a great Italian club will make him a very great player from 1997, but it will take more to become a legend: in the France team, Zinedine Zidane wins the 1998 World Cup, in France and against the Brazilians , during an anthology final on July 12, 1998. The two goals he scored with a header will go down in history. This is the very first time that French players have reached the supreme title of world champion. Zidane received the Ballon d’Or and the title of best European player that same year. The great control specialist has reached an exceptional level of play. In 2000, he won the European Nations Championship with the Blues, a double (World Cup + European Nations Championship) never before achieved in the history of football. “Zizou” is awarded the title of best FIFA player of the year. Its popularity in France is considerable.

Amid several UNFP (French football awards), UEFA and other accolades, Zinedine Zidane won the Ballon d’Or in 1998. He would finish second in 2000 and third in 1997. He was also voted best FIFA Footballer of the Year in 1998, 2000 and 2003. For many, he was one of the best players in the world. His mastery of control, his very good vision of the game and the quality of his distribution characterize this exceptional player. Pelé is full of praise for him: “He is the master, quite simply. I would put Zidane in the five best players (in history). In the last ten years, there hasn’t been one others like him, he was the best player in the world”.

Zinedine Zidane’s post-career is initially rather vague. Zidane first devoted himself to charities, chained a few gala matches and received offers for a luxury retirement in a club in the United States or Australia. He finally returned to football in June 2009, when he joined Real Madrid’s management team as an adviser to the president. In July 2011, “Zizou” became the club’s sporting director after the departure of Jorge Valdano. On June 26, 2013, he was chosen as assistant coach to Carlo Ancelotti, still with Real Madrid.

In 2015, Zidane obtained his UEFA coaching diploma and his European professional license. He must pass the DEPF (professional football coaching diploma) in 2016. On January 4, 2016, he became coach of Real Madrid in place of Rafael Benítez, in the midst of a crisis for the club, which has just chained heavy defeats. The press is skeptical at first, but Zidane’s style, between discretion, determination and a strong relationship with his stars, like Cristiano Ronaldo, will also take over the bench. With Real, Zinédine Zidane will win everything: Spanish championship (2017), Spanish Super Cup (2017), UEFA Super Cup (2016 and 2017), FIFA Club World Cup (2016 and 2017) . Above all, he will chain three victories in a row in the most prestigious competition, the Champions League, which he will win in 2016, 2017 and 2018, before announcing his departure from Real at the end of May 2018. He was recalled to the bench in March 2019, to take over from Santiago Solari, then left the club again in May 2021.
