Zinédine Zidane could return to the Real Madrid bench if Carlo Ancelotti is pushed out or decides to leave. But obviously, this is not what the Italian technician planned.
Tuesday, Kylian Mbappé presented himself at a press conference, on the sidelines of this Wednesday evening's Champions League match against RB Salzburg. In the process, it was Carlo Ancelotti who faced the journalists.
While rumors indicate a possible departure at the end of the season, with a possible replacement by Zinédine Zidane or Xabi Alonso, the Italian technician wanted to set the record straight. “I want to be very clear: I will never decide when I leave this club, never in my life. One day that moment will come, but I don't know when. It's not up to me to decide. It could be tomorrow (he laughs, Editor’s note)in a few matches, in a year, in five years…”, confided the former Paris Saint-Germain coach.
Zidane on the bench of Real Madrid or on that of the Blues?
Carlo Ancelotti is currently under contract with Real Madrid until June 2026. He seems to link his future at the club to that of its president. “Florentino Pérez will be here for four more years and my goal is to finish these four years, he slipped, while laughing. So we can say goodbye together. »
The “Mister” therefore seems well on his way to completing his contract, which will expire at the same time as that of Didier Deschamps with the France team. Zinédine could then be spoiled for choice, if he has not taken a position by this deadline.
