Zidane Hints at Managerial Return, Considers National Team Role
13 Oct
Summary
- Zinedine Zidane found great success as Real Madrid manager
- Zidane has been out of a job since 2021 but linked to Manchester United
- Zidane says "I will return, definitely" and sees himself coaching a national team

In a recent development, former Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane has broken his silence over a return to management. Zidane, who found great success at Real Madrid between 2016-2018 and later 2019-2021, winning three Champions Leagues and two La Liga crowns, has been out of a job since 2021.
However, Zidane has constantly been linked to the Manchester United job, with the current United boss Amorin regularly facing pressure at Old Trafford. Despite a recent 2-0 victory over Sunderland, doubts over Amorin's future remain, and Zidane's comments will certainly spark new rumors.
Zidane has now revealed that he will return to management, stating, "I will return, definitely." Furthermore, the former French international has indicated that he sees himself coaching a national team in the future, though not necessarily immediately. "As for the future, I don't know. My feeling is that I would like to coach the national team in the future -- not necessarily now, but one day, yes," Zidane said.
