Zinedine Zidane has emerged as a candidate to be the next Brazil coach... with influential support from his former Real Madrid teammate Ronaldo.
The contract of current boss Tite expires at the end of the month and he will leave his post after overseeing Brazil’s World Cup quarter final exit to Croatia on penalties. The South American nation were favourites to win the competition and their last eight finish was a disappointment.
Zidane has been out of work since leaving Real Madrid in the summer of 2021 and was linked to the Manchester United hot seat last season. The legendary former midfielder has frequently spoken of his desire to return to management after two successful stints at the helm of Real Madrid.
