Zidane at theABOUTthe fans dream of it on the Canebière side. If Zizou has never worn the Marseille club jersey, some rumors announce him as the coach in the event of a takeover by Saudi Arabia.

“If they have the opportunity to play in Marseille, they will go”

Son of Zinedine Zidane and now retired, Enzo Zidane had spoken about the possibility of seeing one of his brothers playABOUT in the future. He then assured in an interview given to Carré : « A Zidane at OM? I think my brothers are all for Madrid, and they all love Marseille like me. I would like to see all three of them play in Madrid, but playing in Marseille too would be something crazy. It’s still a historic club. Here after it's a difficult club with an extraordinary audience, for me the best audience in and one of the best in the world, but a tough audience. When things go wrong, it's a little more complicated. Luca, I know he has a very strong personality. He's very competitive, I know he likes pressure. It will raise him, in whatever club he is at. There he plays in the second division in Spain, but if he has the opportunity to play for OM, he will come running. Afterwards, the two little ones, any one, if they have the opportunity to play in Marseille, they will go. It's something extraordinary to play in Marseille ».

“I’m from Marseille so playing for OM is a dream for everyone from Marseille”

Among the Zidanethe door would therefore be wide open for a possible future on the side ofABOUT. And the main stakeholders have confirmed it. Starting with Luca Zidane. At 26, the goalkeeper Grenade made it known for Free Foot : « The two clubs of my heart are OM, because I was born in Marseille, and my whole family lives in Marseille, so I have OM in my heart. And then it's Real Madrid, because I spent 15 years there, it's the best club in the world. Now it's Granada. I'm here, I'm happy to be here. It's really a big club, ambitious, so also Granada. I would really like to discover Ligue 1, it’s really a championship that I really like. Two, three years ago, I had the opportunity to play for a club in Ligue 1 and it didn't happen, ultimately I signed for Eibar and it went well at Eibar so I I'm glad I made this decision. I'm from Marseille so playing for OM is a dream for everyone from Marseille. For now, it's not the time, but why not one day be able to play it ».

For his part, Théo Zidane22-year-old midfielder today at Cordobahad confided for Carré : « My favorite clubs? It has always been Real Madrid. We are at home in Madrid, we grew up there. But there is always this Marseille club. It's the heart, it's the family. Would it be great to play for OM one day? Yes, that would be great. It's an extraordinary club with incredible supporters. Who wouldn't like to play OM? (…) Luca has this personality which means he loves challenges. I think we all have it. Luca has proven it, he has already played for 2-3 high level clubs. He has always proven that he is not afraid of pressure. So OM suits him very well ».
