Zinedine Zidane: Not sure what role - if any - he'll have at Real Madrid next season

Zinedine Zidane’s agent has finally broken his silence on rumours that the Frenchman could be the next Manchester United boss.

Zidane is widely tipped to be the next United manager, with Jose Mourinho under immense pressure at Old Trafford.

Mourinho earned himself a stay of execution on Saturday however, with United recovering from a two-goal deficit to beat Newcastle 3-2.

Zidane is still said to be lurking however, waiting in the wings for an opportunity to arise.

But his agent, Alain Migliaccio, insists the former Real Madrid manager is not interested in United, nor any other Premier League job.

“Manchester United? I don’t think he’ll go to England to train. It’s less his style,” he told JDD.

“I discussed it with him, it does not really attract him.

“He has chosen to have a year out, he will not dive in again before that is over.”
