Zinedine Zidane ‘will only return to management for three jobs’ as Bayern Munich hunt new boss
ZINEDINE ZIDANE will reportedly only return to management should three certain jobs become available.
The Frenchman has been linked with the Bayern Munich job following the announcement that Thomas Tuchel will be stepping down.
Tuchel will leave Bayern at the end of the season, prompting the Bundesliga giants into a hunt for their next manager.
Zidane, 51, along with Bayer Leverkusen boss Xabi Alonso have been spoken about as potential options.
The former Real Madrid manager has been out of work since leaving the LaLiga giants in 2021.
During his time as the club’s boss, he enjoyed enormous success winning the Champions League three times and the league twice.
Since becoming a free agent, Zidane has been tipped with moves to Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain.
However, Sport have claimed that only three jobs would interest Zidane in returning to the dugout.
This includes Bayern, as well as his former side Juventus and the French national team.
An insider told the outlet: “Zinédine sees FC Bayern like Real Madrid: an institution as a club with a great past and great working conditions.

“Both clubs have many similarities in the way they work.
“In this respect, it was for him German record champions a topic that he never rejected.
“But he definitely doesn’t want to go to England, that’s for sure.
“But if those in charge in Munich want to get him, they have to give him the sporting power and fulfill his wishes.
“He is very ambitious and subordinates everything to success. He doesn’t want to leave anything to chance.”
As revealed by the insider, Zidane has no interest in managing in the Premier League.
This could rule him out as an option for Liverpool should they miss out on Alonso.
