Cristiano and Varane, United’s tricks to convince Zidane

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is still on the wire and his future on the bench Manchester United is anyone’s guess. The Norwegian coach continues in the eye of the hurricane due to his poor results and for not knowing how to squeeze the potential of a squad designed to fight for the titles and the threat of a possible dismissal continues to hover over Old Trafford.

So things, and with Antonio Conte already acting as a general in the Tottenham, the options of the United to find a new tenant for their bench have been drastically reduced and one name takes all the spotlight: Zinedine Zidane. The French coach remains unemployed after leaving the Real Madrid at the end of last season and his great aspiration is to coach France when Didier Deschamps leave the post after the dispute of the Qatar World Cup.

According to the newspaper The Mirror, Zinedine Zidane I would not be for the work of assuming the bench of the Manchester United mid-season, but he would be willing to assess an offer to take over the Red Devils in summer, with room to make a template to your liking and to establish your work philosophy.

It should be remembered that Zidane he is an ‘expert’ in catching teams in the middle of the season. He did it twice in the Real Madrid. The first was in January 2016, when he made the jump from Castilla to the first team to replace Rafael Benítez and the second was in 2019, when Florentino called him to take over the team in the final stretch of the season as a substitute for Solar.

The United now grabs two ‘hooks’ to try to seduce Zidane. Is about Raphael Varane and Cristiano Ronaldo. The two ex-Real Madrid players landed this summer in Old Trafford, the first from the Santiago Bernabéu and the second from Juventus in Turin. According to the information published in England, United hopes that the relationship between Varane and Cristiano with the coach will be a strong argument to convince Zidane.
