Zinedine Zidane is a world-class manager, as he proved with Real Madrid from 2016 to 2018. The French manager won three consecutive Champions League trophies with Real Madrid and left a huge legacy at the Spanish club. Zidane was also a world-class player, and the former Ballon d'Or winner showed his touch once again on a football pitch. The 51-year-old played at a friendly match in France to commemorate the 100 years of Chaban Delmas, the old stadium of his former club Girondins Bordeaux. During the match, Zidane decided to juggle the ball and move forward at the same time, which wowed the crowd. Football fans reacted to the clip and believed that he was better than some players.
The French icon made a total of 179 appearances for Bordeaux during his career, where he scored 31 goals and provided 23 assists. Zidane played 690 matches combined throughout the clubs he played with. He scored a total of 125 goals and made 142 assists throughout his club career, which includes matches with Real Madrid and Juventus.
Throughout his career, he won many important trophies at the club level and with his French national team. Zidane won a Champions League, a La Liga title, two UEFA Super Cups, two Serie A titles, one Copa del Rey, two Spanish Super Cups, and one Italian Super Cup. Zidane won the 1998 FIFA World Cup and the 2000 Euros with France. He won the Ballon d'Or in 1998 and was awarded The Best FIFA Men's Player of the Year award on three occasions. While playing for Real Madrid, he also won the UEFA Best Player in Europe award in 2002.
L'Équipe reports that Zidane would prefer to become coach of Manchester United rather than Bayern Munich. Manchester United is likely to not continue with Erik Ten Hag next season after finishing a poor season, which means they won't play Champions League football next season. After many rejections from top managers like Zidane, Bayern Munich now turned their focus to keeping Thomas Tuchel next season and canceling parting ways at the end of the season.
