Having left for Miami, Zinedine Zidane found some familiar faces there, including his former teammate David Beckham and Lionel Messi…
Zinedine Zidane was not kind to Marseille supporters. On Tuesday, he did not hesitate to post a photo of himself at the airport, suitcase in hand. “Let’s go,” he wrote. Enough to fantasize many Olympian fans who already imagined him arriving at Olympique de Marseille to succeed Marcelino. Finally, rather than Zizou, it was Gennaro Gattuso who sat on the Ciel et Blanc bench, and the Ballon d’Or flew to Miami.
Arriving in the rain in Florida, the former Madrilenian was in the stands of Lockhart Stadium on Wednesday to watch the US Open Cup final between Inter Miami and Houston Dynamo. And if, deprived of the injured Lionel Messi, the Florida team lost (1-2), the evening gave rise to a legendary photo. Zinedine Zidane posed alongside David Beckham, his former teammate at Real Madrid and big boss of Inter Miami, and Lionel Messi.

The French technician was also able to go onto the pitch to chat with certain members of the staff before attending the match in the dressing rooms. The stands were also well stocked since in addition to Zinedine Zidane and Lionel Messi, reduced to the rank of simple spectator due to muscular fatigue, James Harden, the leader of the Philadelphia NBA franchise, and Gianni Infantino, the president of FIFA, were also present.
