Zidane: I would like to coach Real and France
Zinedine Zidane has expressed his desire to coach Real Madrid or France.
The former playmaker, who has been learning the ropes by taking charge of Los Merengues' reserve side Castilla, set out his ambitions to Canal Plus.
When asked if he would like the Real job, he responded: "Yes, I would go for that," before adding: "There is already a coach [Carlo Ancelotti] in place who is doing a great job."
"Do I feel ready if I was offered the first team? You are never ready, but if it happened like that I would have to say yes."
The 42-year-old added France, whom he propelled to FIFA World Cup™ glory in 1998, to his wish list.
"I was a player in this team and it would be good one day [to be coach], but for the moment there is a coach [Didier Deschamps] who is doing a great job," said Zidane. "But yes, I have this target, this ambition."
Zidane retired from club and international football in 2006. He said he has time to wait until taking on a bigger post. "I am doing fine at Madrid," he said.
