According to information from Spain, Zinedine Zidane will not be named coach of Real Madrid next season.

A door is about to close for Zidane… While his name continues to circulate around Real Madrid, where he would be one of the targets to replace a possible departure of Carlo Ancelotti at the end of the season, the champion of the world 98 should ultimately not make its grand return to the White House next summer.

According to information released this Monday by the media Relevo, Madrid decision-makers have taken the decision to extend the contract of Carlo Ancelotti, currently linked to the residents of the Bernabéu until June 30, 2024. Florentino Perez has already informed the Italian coach of his desire to see him return for two more seasons. And the latter wouldn’t say no, quite the contrary…

Formalization planned before the end of the year?

Indeed, Carlo Ancelotti, also coveted by the Brazilian selection, would have given priority to Casa Blanca, again according to the same source. Therefore, everything could accelerate in the coming weeks. The objective of the Merengue leaders would be to complete the extension of the former PSG coach before the end of 2023. Very bad news could Zidane, who would very probably have been interested in making a third tenure on the Real Madrid bench.
