Football: “It can be done one day”, when Zinedine Zidane dreams of coaching Kylian Mbappé

A short sentence that will certainly give ideas to many people. In an interview with AFP, as part of the partnership unveiled Thursday between his five-a-side football complex, the “Z5”, and Electronic Arts, the publisher of the video game “EA Sports FC”, Zinedine Zidane did not hid his admiration for Kylian Mbappé. Better, he affirms that he dreams of training it one day.

“When you are a coach and you have a player like that, you want to train him, assured Zidane. Lots of things can happen. It could happen one day. In any case, I admire what he does, like many people today. It’s strong what he does, it’s beautiful! He is a French player, he wears the jersey of the France team, so we are proud. »

An exit that will inevitably cause a cascading reaction. While the 1998 world champion has once again refused an offer to coach PSG, and the 2018 world champion has announced that he will not extend his contract with the capital club, which will end in June 2024, one can speculate on the place where the two men could meet.

It’s no open secret to say that Zidane dreams of the post of coach of the France team. Only problem, Didier Deschamps was extended until 2026 after the final lost against Argentina at the last World Cup in Qatar.

If the planets do not seem aligned to find the two men in the France team, then there remains Real Madrid. The White House has been pushing for months to attract the French star. Madrid have recovered since Mbappé announced that he would not extend his contract with PSG beyond June 2024.

For its part, the selection of Brazil has been making eyes for months at Carlo Ancelotti, the coach of Real Madrid, who is under contract until June 2024. In the event of the departure of the Italian, is it possible to consider Zidane’s third return to Real after a first stint between 2016 and 2018 and a second between 2019 and 2021?
