The possibility of Zinedine Zidane becoming the future coach of Olympique de Marseille (OM) has been raised by José Anigo, the sports director of the club. Anigo expressed the desire to find a new coach for Marseille, and Zidane’s name has been mentioned. Zidane is currently the assistant coach at Real Madrid under Carlo Ancelotti.
However, Anigo acknowledged that convincing Zidane to leave Real Madrid, where he is an iconic figure, might not be easy. Zidane is considered one of the biggest stars in the history of Real Madrid. Reports suggest that Zidane’s current salary as an assistant coach at Real Madrid is around 300,000 euros per year, which is relatively modest compared to some coaching salaries in top football clubs.
Despite the potential financial considerations, Zidane’s emotional connection to Marseille and the prospect of coaching his “other favorite club” could be factors in any decision. The situation is still unfolding, and it remains to be seen whether Zidane would be willing to make the move to OM.
