Zinedine Zidane has decided against returning to Real Madrid for a third stint as manager, despite growing pressure on current boss Carlo Ancelotti according to Cadena SER.
Ancelotti’s position at the Bernabeu has become increasingly precarious following the team’s fifth defeat of the season.
Real Madrid currently sits second in LaLiga, trailing rivals Barcelona by four points, and is struggling in the Champions League, ranking 24th and barely clinging to a spot in the knockout play-off rounds.
As speculation surrounding Ancelotti’s future intensifies, several candidates have emerged as potential replacements, including Raul, Solari, and Zinedine Zidane.
However, Zinedine Zidane has reportedly expressed reluctance to take on the role, at least until the end of the season, due to concerns about committing to a short-term contract.
Notably, Real Madrid has long-term ambitions to appoint Xabi Alonso as manager in 2025.
In the interim, the club may consider an interim boss to steady the ship.
Zidane’s decision to rule himself out of the running has significant implications for Real Madrid’s managerial search, as he is widely regarded as one of the club’s most successful managers, having won three Champions League titles and two LaLiga crowns during his previous tenure.
