Zinedine Zidane, the former Real Madrid manager, has said he realized a reality when he first took charge of the team.
The former French Blues attacking midfielder noticed that the importance of the number 10 in a team had greatly diminished.
However, the 1998 Ballon d’Or still carried out an exercise with its players who knew who they trusted the most to lead the game.
Zidane had gathered all the Real Madrid players in the locker room and asked them who they thought should be given the number 10 and responsibility for the game.
All the players are looking forward to the 2018 Ballon d’Or according to the explanations of the former captain of the French Blues.
“After taking responsibility for coaching Real Madrid, I realized how the number 10 had become a completely ordinary number.
However, it should be worn by a special player, a role model admired by all, the player everyone wants to become.
I stood outside the locker room and asked the players who they thought should wear this jersey.
‘He would be a player who never makes mistakes on the pitch and who we look up to when the important games get difficult.
The player we’re all looking for is the one everyone wants to pass the ball to.’ When I finished, everyone was looking at Luka Modric,” said the former Real Madrid coach.
