Eager to find a sidelines, Zinedine Zidane sees a door closing.

Zidane doesn’t hide it. Without a club since the end of the 2020-2021 financial year and his departure from Real Madrid, the French legend wants to return to the sidelines next season. He proclaimed it once again on the microphone of Sky Italia. “Currently, I am doing other things. We will see, but it is certain that I would like to come back on a bench again,” he declared.

It now remains to be seen where Zizou can bounce back, having refused many tempting offers in recent years. For several days, his name has come up loudly among Bayern Munich, who have decided to part ways with Thomas Tuchel at the end of the season. A destination which, according to certain sources, could interest the 98 world champion.

Zidane is clearly not the priority

Yes but here it is, according to Sky Deutschland, Xabi Alonso would be the top priority for Bavarian decision-makers. However, the file promises to be complicated for the German champions, the former Spanish midfielder also being coveted by Liverpool. Therefore, Bayern would have made Roberto De Zerbi, currently stationed at Brighton, their plan B. Zidane would therefore not be the preferred route.

Information which confirms the recent comments of the sporting director of the Rekordmeister, Max Eberl, recently cast a chill on a potential arrival of Zidane, explaining that the future coach had to speak German or English. Which is not the case for the French technician. “Of course he has to speak a language that we all speak, so it has to be German or English, he said. French is a little “lighter” for me. It is also a criterion, but not an exclusion criterion. »
