Among the thousands of fans present on June 1 at Wembley there is one very special one. It’s about French Zinedine Zidane. The French will be a luxury spectator of the match where the real Madrid can lift his fifteenth Champions League.
The French coach repeated his presence as he was in Paris two years ago where the white team won the fourteenth after defeating the Liverpool. The appointment took place a year after leaving the Madrid bench in May 2021.
Zidane He continues to maintain a historic record in the Champions League as he is the only coach to achieve three consecutive continental titles by winning the Champions Leagues in 2016, 2017 and 2018. Titles corresponding to the eleventh- one, twelfth and thirteenth of the highest team competitions in the Old Continent.
France pending the Euro Cup
After that comes the Euro Cup in Germany and where the French coach will be helpful. Because managing France is still an option that will prompt the coach’s return to the bench.
Zidane has settled perfectly in the capital of Spain where his life has adapted and signing for a club means breaking this status. This explains why he has so far not received any offers from the various clubs knocking on his door, including Bayern Munich.
Something that would not happen if he was in charge of the national team. This will allow him to continue living in Madrid and travel when there are national team concentrations or whenever the position requires it.
An option that could happen this coming summer, depending on France’s role in the Euro Cup, or have to wait for the end of the 2026 World Cup As this is the expiry date of coach Didier Deschamps’ current contract after extension of its contract in January 2023 for two major events with the national team: the European Cup and the world. But the final result of the selection could hasten the departure of the current coach who has been in the position he arrived in July 2012 for twelve years.
