When Zinedine Zidane returns home in Marseille, it's always an event. On Monday, the legend of French football was passing through the northern districts, at the Cité de la Castellane, where he grew up before joining the AS Cannes training center at the age of 15. And of course, it was welcomed as it should be.

The reason for his coming? His participation in the “Impulstar” tournament organized by “Universe Football” and his cousin Ryad Zidane. A street football tournament reserved for young people aged 14 to 16. An event that takes place in several cities in France and whose grand finale will take place in Paris.

Zidane: “There are not only things that go wrong in the neighborhoods”

Coming to support the project, “Zizou” had a few words for young people in his neighborhood. “Bravo to you and all the teams!” There are not only things that go wrong in the neighborhoods, there are things that must be done for all these kids (the inhabitants of the neighborhood) who want to succeed ”launched the old number 10 of the Blues, in words reported by Provence.

To finish in style, the 98 world champion has a distribution of Adidas products. Beyond being its historic sponsor, the three-band brand is the partner of the “Impulstar” event since 2021. A day that the inhabitants of the Castellane are not close to forget.
