Zidane Signs New Contract With Real Madrid

By Farouk Mohammed

Real Madrid boss, Zinedine Zidane, has revealed that he has signed a new contract with the Spanish champions.

Since taking over the helm at the Bernabeu, the former Real midfielder has won the Champions League twice and La Liga once.

Madrid have renewed several players’ contracts in recent weeks and the Frenchman told a news conference that he also has extended his contract.

“In terms of the renewal, it’s already done. I care about the day-to-day and I’m not looking further than that,” said Zidane.

The deal has not yet been formally announced by the club.

Zidane, who took charge of Real in January 2016 and has led them to consecutive Champions League trophies and their first La Liga title since 2012, as well winning the Uefa Super Cup twice and the Fifa Club World Cup.

In August he said the deal, thought to be for three years, had been agreed but not signed.

The 45-year-old former France international managed Real’s B team before replacing Rafael Benitez.

Real Madrid continue their league title defence on Wednesday when they host Real Betis.
