Zidane left the Real Madrid job, a week after winning a third consecutive Champions League title with the club.
Zinedine Zidane shocked the football fraternity when he announced his resignation from the Real Madrid job last month. He won his third consecutive Champions League title with Los Blancos, but left the club merely a week after the triumph.
And the reports emerge from Italy that Zidane has joined the technical staff of Juventus, where he will play the role of advisor to the sports management. The news has been reported by Italian journalist Juanma Rodriguez.
Earlier, Cristiano Ronaldo joined Juventus from Real Madrid, after spending 9 years with the Spanish giants. The Portuguese star seemingly hinted at his departure from Real Madrid after the Champions League final in May.
It is now being speculated that Zinedine Zidane’s deal with Juventus is related to Cristiano Ronaldo’s transfer.
According to Rodriguez, Zidane will join Juventus in October.
Here are some of the tweets on the alleged deal:
