Zidane has shown Madrid that he has qualities that were barely imaginable.""In the minds of the French, he may be a successor. But that's not my goal. We'll see. If Didier and I go our separate ways, he will surely be one of the options."He added:"We'll see what happens; Zidane might take on PSG, for the France team, you have to be free."Mehedi Hassan@MHassanFootballPochettino, Tuchel, Pep - three managers Zidane wasn't able to beat in the UCL during and after the threepeat.
