Zidane led Los Blancos to three consecutive Champions League wins, while also bagging the La Liga title in 2017.

And he has since been tipped to replace Jose Mourinho following the Portuguese’s struggles at United this season.

Zidane was renowned for his attacking style of play in the Spanish capital.

And he could be just the man to bring the good times back to Old Trafford, although Bayern Munich could also compete for his services with Niko Kovac on the brink.

“It’s most likely that he will return to coaching soon.
