In case you didn’t know…
Zinedine Zidane needs no introduction. He is a prominent member in the list of greatest footballers of all time and is revered as a legend in France and Real Madrid.
As a footballer, Zidane conquered almost everything in football both with Juventus and Real Madrid. The French icon’s majestic volley against Bayer Leverkusen in Champions League final still remains etched in the memory of Los Blancos fans over the world.
ZIdane started as an assistant coach in Real Madrid during the tenure of Carlo Ancelotti and was hired as replacement to Rafa Benitez which was his first managerial stint in his career.
The Frenchman won everything there is to win in the two and half season tenure as Los Blancos’ manager except the Copa Del Rey and made history by winning the Champions League three consecutive times.
Zidane left Real Madrid after the end of 2017/18 season but returned after nine months to once again take charge of the club.
The heart of the matter
In his latest interview, Zidane opened up about his childhood and revealed that the opportunities were far lesser back when he started playing than it is now.
What’s next?
After a 2-0 win to start off his second managerial stint with Real Madrid, Zidane will be back at hot seat when Los Blancos host Huesca in LaLiga after International break.
