Real Madrid manager, Zinedine Zidane plans to leave the club at the end of this season, according to new reports.
Zidane, who made his name as a player in the early 2000s and came back
to win three champions league titles for Madrid as a coach told his
players that he would not be coaching the team next season just before
their clash with Sevilla last week, according to a report by GOAL.
The report says the Frenchman said he will walk away from the club at
the end of the 2020-21 season, making it the second time he has resigned
from the post, having previously quit following Madrid's third
consecutive Champions League triumph in 2018.
Madrid play Athletic Club today, May 16, in La Liga and then conclude
their season at home to Villarreal on May 23 which will be be Zidane's
last two games in charge of the Blancos, according to the report.
The major reason given for his decision to quit is that Zidane is physically and mentally fatigued.
With his decision to resign, there are now rumours linking the Frenchman to a sensational return to Juventus where he made his name as a player.
But it is doubtful whether he would be prepared to jump back into coaching so soon after leaving Madrid.
With two games left to play, Zidane's men are currently second, two
points behind leaders Atletico Madrid, with Barcelona a further two back
in third.
