He Bayern Munich, Real Madrid’s next opponent in the Champions League semi-finals is a club that meets the requirements that Zidane demands to return to the game three years later. The greatness of the club, the stability of a medium and long-term project and the option of fighting for all the titles make Bayern the most attractive option for the French star, who has never had financial motivations to resume his career.

The French star has not sat on a bench since he left the club.l Real Madrid at the end of the 2020/21 campaign in his second spell at the Whites.
