Zinedine Zidane open to Premier League move

Real Madrid Castilla boss Zinedine Zidane reveals that he is interested in coaching in the Premier League.

Zinedine Zidane has revealed that he would be interested in managing in the Premier League should the opportunity arise.

The Frenchman acted as assistant to Carlo Ancelotti at Real Madrid last season, before taking charge of Real Madrid Castilla in the summer.

The 42-year-old has said that his immediate focus is on Castilla, but a move to the Premier League does appeal to the legend.

"The future is certainly to be able to do something else and take control of a team," he told Canal +.

"Firstly, I am thinking about this season, finishing it well and achieving promotion, because that is our aim, to get out of La Segunda. But next year we'll see.

"As a player I wasn't tempted by a move to England, but as a coach why not? It is a league where the English-type manager wields most of the power and that is something that would please me."

Zidane was banned from coaching earlier this season after it was revealed that the former midfielder did not have the correct qualifications.
