French legend Zinedine Zidane has received a firm warning from one of his ex-teammates, who believes that he should get back into management as soon as possible
Zidane's Exclusive Shortlist
The former Real Madrid maestro, who has been without a club since leaving the Spanish giants in 2021, has reportedly drawn interest from top European clubs, including Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain.

According to Sport, as reported by the Sun, "Zinédine sees FC Bayern like Real Madrid: an institution as a club with a great past and great working conditions.
Both clubs have many similarities in the way they work. In this respect, it was for him German record champions a topic that he never rejected.
But he doesn’t want to go to England, that’s for sure. But if those in charge in Munich want to get him, they have to give him sporting power and fulfil his wishes. He is very ambitious and subordinates everything to success. He doesn't want to leave anything to chance."
A Clear Vision for Success
Zidane's clear stance on the conditions under which he would consider a managerial comeback underlines his commitment to excellence and control.
The Frenchman's remarkable success at Real Madrid, where he clinched three Champions League titles and two La Liga crowns, is a testament to his managerial prowess and his ability to thrive under the pressure of leading top-tier clubs.
As the football community eagerly awaits his next move, Zidane's disinterest in the Premier League, as noted by insiders, narrows down the possibilities for his return. This revelation could potentially leave clubs like Liverpool, rumored to be eyeing Xabi Alonso, considering alternative options.
