Following reports in Germany yesterday that Real Madrid had announced to Arling Holland that they would not sign that summer, Bild reported that the person who could lead to a turnaround in the plot is Adidas – the dresser of the Spanish league leader, with the help of none other than Zinedine Zidane.
After the Borussia Dortmund striker ended his contract with Nike, he is close to signing with Adidas, and in “Bild” it was revealed that last Monday a secret meeting took place in the German clothing giant’s offices that included company officials, Holland and his father, Zidane and even Micho – the player the Norwegian admired as a child .
The aim, it was argued, was to persuade Holland to sign the Adidas contract, and that Zidane’s presence was crucial. Unsurprisingly, the striker is wanted by other brands, but a signing with Adidas will bring him closer to Real Madrid, this is because the German dresser also sponsors Blancos, and she will definitely want her new player to play in one of the big clubs with which she has an agreement.
On the other hand, it has recently been reported that Real Madrid prefer to focus on Killian Ambape this summer and want to see Holland continue another year in Dortmund to join him in the summer of 2023. Given the fact that Schwarzgelben’s dress is Puma, it will be interesting to see how that affects.
So will Zidane, who next season may actually coach Paris Saint-Germain, be the one to indirectly bring the Netherlands closer to the renewed Santiago Bernabeu? Still unclear. But one thing is certain: we will hear a lot about the future of the Norwegian bomber in the coming months.
