Former French Midfielder and Manager Zinedine Zidane popularly known as Zizou is certainly one of the most-sought-after football managers in the game today judging by the heroic role he played in Real Madrid's Champions League successes.
The former Le Bleu Star was appointed by Real Madrid's President Florentino Perez to take the Spanish Giants to the next level at the time and Zidane didn't disappoint neither did he falter.
The former French midfield Maestro took the football world by surprise with his brand of attacking football. Fortunately for the Frenchman, he had top stars like Cristiano Ronaldo in his fold to deliver the goods. Ronaldo at the time was busy smashing every available record in the Spanish La Liga and in Europe at the time.
Zidane's managerial prowess and style led Real Madrid to winning the UEFA Champions League title three times in a roll to the surprise and utter shock of many.
Ever since that managerial feat, Zizou became the toast of every managerial vacancy in and out of Europe. He has been linked with managerial vacancies at Manchester United, Chelsea and even Real Madrid.
It was recently discussed in some section of the European press that Real Madrid would do everything to bring their former Manager back should present manager Carlo Ancelotti fail to take Madrid to the knockout phase of the UEFA Champions League.
It is left to be seen when the former iconic midfield Maestro will grace the European club dugout again, time will certainly tell!
