Zidane would like to return to Juventus next summer. PAUL CHILDS / PANORAMIC

Free since 2021, the ex-Real coach aims to find a bench for next season. Find out where…

Zinedine Zidane at the head of Paris Saint-Germain? A dream cherished by Parisian leaders for a long time. A little more than that in fact: a goal that they will try to achieve in the coming weeks according to The Team . Except that the 50-year-old technician, free since leaving Real Madrid in 2021, has other ideas in mind. According to radio information RMC , Zidane is instead aiming for a return to Juventus Turin. Already very close to returning to Piedmont in 2019, he who played there between 1996 and 2001, he would indeed have elevated the Old Lady to the rank of “priority». «The European destiny of Juve would not be a condition for Zidane to accept this challenge. He would be ready to commit to a long-term, progressive project, even if it means not playing Europe for the first few years.“, we are assured, while Juventus saw their withdrawal of 15 points suspended on Thursday, which makes them climb to third place in the Serie A standings. A decision which could however be reversed in the future.

Still, “Zizou”, triple winner of the Champions League on the bench of Real Madrid, really wants to return to service next season. It’s not a secret, he hoped to take over from Didier Deschamps at the head of the Blues. This is no longer possible in the short term. Obviously, there is a small catch: Juventus have a coach until further notice, Max Allegri. And the latter is also under contract until 2025 in Turin…

Cramped at PSG?

And the Paris-SG in all this? always according to RMC , Zidane never definitively closed the door to the capital club. However, he has already said no to Paris, like last summer, in particular because of the Blues. This train having passed, all the lights are not yet green. “The organization chart at all levels of PSG, like the operation next season, question the technician“, we swear, specifying that the playmaker of the 98 world champions is “very attached to his freedom of action and his sporting power“. Enough for “wondering about the field of action that a coach can have at PSG“. With Luis Campos around and very influential decision makers on the Doha side, “ZZcould indeed feel cramped on the banks of the Seine… All this without mentioning his affection for his hometown, Marseille, and the club of his heart, OM… no question in the paper of RMC. In the meantime, Allegri and Juve will try to win the C3 and the PSG of Christophe Galtier, to get their hands on the 11th title of champion of France in the history of the club. With Zidane’s shadow overhead.
