Zidane is celebrating 50 years today, an important event before he agreed to break the silence of recent months. In an extensive and in -depth 16 -page interview published this morning by the newspaper L’Équipe, the player from Marseille went through some of the most important stages of his life on and off the pitch and also addressed some questions with relation to his future, now. that His name is definitely going away on the PSG bench.
The Paris option
“Coach PSG someday? Never say No. As a footballer I had the option to go to many clubs. In almost everything. As a manager, I don’t have fifty clubs I can go to. There are two or three possibilities. This is the truth. If I come back, it is to win. I say this modestly. That’s why I can’t go. Also for other reasons… ”.
The language, a barrier
“When people say to me: ‘Do you want to go to Manchester?’ I reply that I understand English but I don’t quite memorize it. I know there are coaches who go to clubs without speaking the language, but I work differently. To win, many elements come into play, it’s a global context. I know what I need to succeed. And I want to do everything on my part to get to that goal. ”
The choice, his great dream
“I would, of course. Hope to be a coach someday. When? I won’t take care of it. But hopefully I can close the circle in France. I was a player, and that was the best thing that happened to me, but as a coach that I am now, leading my country is something that is permanently on my mind ”.
always ambitious
“I am a winner, without pretensions. I was not surprised to top three Champions with Madrid. If I didn’t believe I could, I wouldn’t have taken that step. I worked hard for that reward. Ultimately, victory is as good as a penalty shootout, as against Juve in 2017 or the following year against Liverpool. The latter was huge because we had a difficult season in the league and this success put what we are as a club to the test ”.
His arrival at Real Madrid as a player
“It’s something that’s on my mind. I had a good career at Juve, I won everything in France and at 28 I told myself that going to the Santiago Bernabéu, the biggest team in the world, was a step forward. He knew Florentino Pérez was also interested. Everything went fast and we reconciled. The price? € 76 million. Juve have the right to ask and Real Madrid to pay ”.
His current relationship with Real Madrid
“I have a lot of relationships. I go to the stadium whenever I’m in Madrid. I have a son in the locker room and I really enjoy being with my family. I was also recently at the Stade de France to watch the Champions League final against Liverpool ”.
