Journalist: Zidane has flown to Qatar to SIGN his contract with PSG

Since Tuesday, there has been a strong negotiation for the signing of Zidane and today the optimism in Paris is maximum

If there are no last minute changes, Zidane will take over the bench at the Parc des Princes . This Saturday , according to Ramón Fuentes from Madrid, could be the key day , due to the meeting between the coach and the Emir of Qatar.

PSG's salary proposal is irrefutable and would make Zidane the highest paid coach in the world. However, the economic issue was never an obstacle, since the coach raised two strictly sporting objectives as a condition for joining the club.

The first objective was to have total sporting control and for that Leonardo had to leave the club. The second was to retain Kylian Mbappé in the squad . Both conditions have been met.

Now, there is a difficult problem to solve and that is Zidane's relationship with Marseille . It is known that he is a declared fan of Olympique but taking into account Zidane's professionalism this issue should not be a stumbling block. However, the professional development of a coach of Zidane's prestige in the upper echelons of global football is not the same as the passion with which football is lived in Zizou's hometown and where a good part of the family currently resides and friends of his. 

It is not about a supposed " betrayal " to the player's birth club, but about how the Marseille fans can react both in terms of security and social sensitivity in the city.

The recent public declarations of the French president, Emmanuel Macron, supporting the incorporation of Zidane to Ligue 1 are a very influential factor in the installation of a national consensus regarding the need to add the greatest star in the history of French football.
