At this point in time, Zinedine Zidane seems like the most coveted manager in the world. After leaving the Galacticos with three Champions League titles under his belt, there seems to be no dearth of interest in him.

So far, he has been touted to replace Jose Mourinho at the Old Trafford should the Portuguese be sacked. However, his agent seems to have poured cold water over such a possibility, claiming that his client isn’t interested in moving to the Premier League because Zidane feels like the football played in England doesn’t suit his style.

"He was exhausted in terms of nerves, he has chosen to take a sabbatical year and he won’t go back on that,” Alain Migliaccio, Zidane’s agent, said.

"I don’t think he’ll go to England, it’s not his style.

"I’ve spoken about it with him and the truth is that it doesn’t attract him."
