AS: Zidane to coach France next summer, RM comeback untrue

  /  rzr0101

According to a recent report by José Félix Díaz of AS, Zidane will coach the French national team after next summer's World Cup, contradicting previous rumors of a return to Real Madrid.

The report states that Zidane's appointment as the new French national team coach after next year's World Cup has been in the works for some time, announced by himself, and confirmed by his recent actions.

Deschamps and his agents are actively seeking different coaching positions in the Saudi league to find a foothold for next season. He knows his experience coaching the French national team is enough to pave the way, and therefore he is working to make a move to the Middle East almost a certainty.

Recent rumors have suggested that Zidane will return to Real Madrid, but this is not the case. Real Madrid has never considered any other option besides changing coaches, neither last spring nor now. However, this does not mean he will re-establish professional ties with Real Madrid; there is still a significant distance between the two.
