Former Real Madrid Coach Zinedine Zidane is set to become the manager of this Premier League club
Zinedine Zidane, the renowned football figure, may soon make a surprising return to football management, according to recent speculation. Since leaving Real Madrid in 2021, Zidane has remained out of managerial roles, despite being linked to various clubs like Manchester United, Liverpool, and Paris Saint-Germain. However, reports suggest a potential shift, with Zidane nearing an agreement to take over as Bayern Munich’s manager, replacing Thomas Tuchel, as reported by Mundo Deportivo.
Tuchel’s imminent departure from Bayern follows a disappointing domestic season, although he might leave the team with two Champions League titles. Zidane’s interest in the Bayern role reportedly hinges on transfer market assurances, with contract negotiations pending specific details. Previously, Zidane was heavily linked with Manchester United, possibly succeeding Erik ten Hag, and rumors circulated about him potentially replacing Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool. Bayern’s sudden interest in Zidane contrasts with their earlier pursuit of Julian Nagelsmann, who recently committed to Germany until the 2026 World Cup, ending any hopes of a Bayern return after being sacked just over a year ago.
Before committing to Bayern Munich, the club explored options including Nagelsmann and former star Xabi Alonso, following his success with Bayer Leverkusen. Despite speculation linking Zidane with various clubs, including a potential move to England, his potential appointment at Bayern Munich marks a surprising twist in his managerial career trajectory. As the football world awaits official confirmation, Zidane’s potential return to management adds an intriguing dimension to the upcoming season.
