Not many get to win Europe’s most coveted trophy both as a player and as a manager.To been precise there are only seven of such people; Miguel Muñoz, Giovanni Trapattoni, Johan Cruyff, Carlo Ancelotti, Josep Guardiola, Frank Rijkaard, and Zinedine Yazid Zidane.
Zidane would go on to win it three consecutive times as a manager for Real Madrid, and the only one to achieve such feat.
Zidane, 51, is not only a UCL winner (both as player and as manager) but also a World Cup winner as a player.
According to reports, it is said that the French and Real Madrid Legend is ready to throw his hat once again into the ring as personal terms have been agreed with the Top brass of Bayern Munich.
The French man could be in the dugout for the Rekordmeister, as the Germans look to replace Thomas Tuchel who they parted ways with in the 2023/24 season.
Zidane would be hoping to turn the fortunes around at the Allianz arena, after an abysmal season by the all-time Bundesliga champions who lost to rivals Bayer Leverkusen, who are led by former player Xabi Alonso; a player Zidane knows too well during his time as advisor to Florentino Perez at Real Madrid.
Bayern Munich is in need of a manager who can utilise and exploit the many vibrant and intelligent crop of players in their war chest at the Allianz arena.
Can Zidane win the UEFA Champions League for Bayern Munich in the 2024/25 season? Only time will tell.
