While he has just politely refused approaches from Algeria, Zinedine Zidane would indeed be interested in OM in the event of a takeover by Saudi Arabia.
Algeria has further stretched the list of clubs or selections to which Zinedine Zidane said no. After Chelsea, Manchester United, PSG, the United States and Brazil, the former Ballon d’Or has in fact rejected the advances of the Algerian federation which had made the native of Marseille its priority in its quest for a new coach following the departure of Djamel Belmadi after the CAN fiasco.
This new refusal from the former Madrilenian did not surprise Jérôme Rothen. For the RMC consultant, Zinedine Zidane indeed has another idea in mind. “ He is waiting for OM. He’s not going to wait for the blues for five more years. Real Madrid, he already went there a second time, he didn’t want to go to England, and that was confirmed by his friend Dugarry. So Olympique de Marseille. He is waiting for OM”, he confided to the microphone of Rothen ignites.
And for Thibaud Vezirian, convinced for two years of the upcoming sale of Olympique de Marseille to Saudi Arabia, Zinedine Zidane might not come alone. Samir Nasri could also be part of the adventure. “Samir Nasri is one of those people who could return to OM since he is free, he is an emblematic player, he gets along well with Benatia and Zidane, he is close to the Middle East, he explained on his YouTube channel. There are no external obstacles that show us that this is not a personality that could fit with the future OM. »
