Watch Zinedine Zidane, 49, roll back the years in 5-a-side game with his sons after quitting Real Madrid


ZINEDINE ZIDANE rolled back the years by showing off his brilliant skills in a game of 5-a-side with his sons.

The Frenchman is enjoying time off after quitting Real Madrid for a second time at the end of the season.

And in a game of fives with his sons Elyaz, Driss, Theo and Luca, Zizou showed off his velvet close control.

In a series of videos posted to his Instagram story, the elder Zidane dazzled in his tiny shorts with mesmerising close control as he oozed class on the field.

The posts come 15 years to the day since a 34-year-old Zizou produced a masterclass as he inspired France to victory over Brazil at the 2006 World Cup final.

Les Bleus didn’t fair so well in this summer’s Euro 2020, however, being shocked by superb Switzerland earlier this week.

The early exit has led to mounting pressure on World Cup winning boss Didier Deschamps – with Zidane waiting in the wings.

Deschamps, however, has credit in the bank – as well as a fantastic relationship with the French Football Federation president Noel Le Graet.

Speaking on the manager’s position to Le Figaro, Le Graet said: “He needs to think through, me too, we will see each somewhere outside the FFF to spend the day together, get a sense of his motivation and desires.

“We are not going to call everything into question, after everything that he did.

“We are speaking of a man who has won it all and who took us to the 2018 World Cup.

“I am waiting to see him and for us to speak to reflect on this competition and speak about football.

“I want to see how he is feeling, if his motivation is in tact, and mine too.”

On Zidane, he added: “He is a man who I like, we are not going to go over his success as a player and a manager.

“Zidane will one day lead France. When? I don’t know. I do not have a scoop for you today.”
