Real Madrid's management is making big plans. According to sources, club president Florentino Perez is determined to see French football legend Zinedine Zidane back as the head coach of the "cream-colored" team.
It is reported that Perez intends to persuade the 53-year-old specialist to abandon a possible deal with the French national team and return to manage Real Madrid from 2026. The club's management sees Zidane as a coach who has undergone a deep test of Real's history and knows how to work under great pressure.
Madrid is no stranger to Zidane. He worked as an assistant coach in the team in the 2013/14 season, and later managed the first team in 2016-2018 and 2019-2021. During this time, Real Madrid became Spanish champions twice and, most importantly, three consecutive Champions League titles, leaving an indelible mark on the history of European football.
At the moment, Xabi Alonso is at the helm of Madrid. He has been in charge since May 2025. After the 18th round of the 2025/26 La Liga season, the “cream-colored” are in second place in the competition table with 42 points.
At the same time, serious thoughts about the future have begun within the club. If Perez's plan comes true, the Zidane era could once again begin at the Santiago Bernabeu. This means not only nostalgia for the fans, but also the return of great hopes.
