Former Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane is the subject of discussions within the Saudi Football Federation.
Corriere della Sera claims that Zidane is being considered to replace Roberto Mancini, the coach of the Saudi national team. According to this source, Mancini and the federation have already started negotiations with a view to a termination accompanied by a severance payment of 30 million euros. The results of the former Squadra coach are not very convincing.
Zidane in high demand
Zidane is available and is the preferred option by the Saudi federation. The problem is that the Saudi federation is not the only one to flirt with the French legend. It is rumored that Manchester United or his former club Real Madrid are also looking to attract him to their benches.
As a reminder, the Frenchman won the Champions League three times as coach of Real Madrid, but he has not been active since 2021.
