Zidane really wants to train in Italy

Zinedine Zidane has not currently coached again after leaving Real Madrid. One day, Zizou wants to try out coaching a club in Italy.

Zidane was trusted to become the head coach of the Real Madrid senior team in 2016. He previously spent time as Carlo Ancelotti’s assistant and coached the Castilla team.

Zidane’s achievements as Madrid coach were very good. The French football legend has won two LaLiga titles and three Champions Leagues.

Zidane is currently still not coaching after completing his second period at Madrid in 2021. Zidane has been linked with many top clubs as long as there is no new boat.

The 51 year old man is currently in Italy. Zidane came to attend the premiere of Marcello Lippi’s documentary. The famous Italian tactician was the figure who established Zidane as a top footballer at Juventus.

Italy is also a familiar country for Zidane. The winner of the 1998 World Cup title really wants to have a career in the world of coaching in Italy.

“Why not, anything can happen. I want to train in Italy one day,” Zidane told DAZN.

“I’m not coaching at the moment, but why not? I like Italy and I like football in Italy,” he stressed.

Massimiliano Allegri’s future at Juventus is currently still a question mark. So, it is not impossible for Zidane to return to the Bianconeri as a coach.

Haaland Still Injured, Can Only Play at the End of January

Erling Haaland is still unable to play for Manchester City due to injury. The Norwegian bomber is predicted to make a comeback at the end of January.

Haaland has been absent from Man City since early December 2023. He has a bone problem and has missed the Sky Blues’ last eight matches.

The latest news shows that Haaland has started training with the team before the meeting against Huddersfield Town in the FA Cup. However, he was not included in Man City’s starting line up in that match.

Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, admitted that Erling Haaland’s injury took longer than expected. According to him, the 23-year-old bomber still needs to rest before returning to the field.

“He had a slight problem with his leg. The doctors decided to rest for one week and will start again in Abu Dhabi,” said Guardiola about Haaland’s injury, reported by The Sun.

“It’s a bone injury, it takes time. With every injury, you can do anything, but it’s a matter of time,” he added.

“Hopefully by the end of this month he will be ready. That’s a little more than we expected,” said Guardiola.

It is certain that Erling Haaland will not play when Manchester City clashes with Newcastle United, Sunday (14/1) early morning WIB. The Sky Blues then entered a two-week break before playing against Tottenham Hotspur in the FA Cup.
