Zinedine Zidane Addresses Jose Mourinho Links With Real Madrid

With Zinedine Zidane having come under much scrutiny of late, the Frenchman has commented on rumours suggesting that Jose Mourinho could replace him at Spanish giants Real Madrid.

9 Stars Who Shone After Leaving Real Madrid

Despite his brilliant two years at Los Blancos between 2016 and 2018, Zidane's return to Real's dugout this year has not been as successful as many would have hoped.

As a result, Mourinho has been tipped to replace him if matters do not improve, but the Frenchman has now insisted he has the club's full support and is not concerned about rumours linking the Portuguese tactician with his job.

"Do I feel questioned? No, the opposite," he said, according to Sport.  

"I feel backed by those that work here. If that wasn't the case, I'd be better off leaving.

"It doesn't annoy me that Mourinho's linked. This is the situation. Here, you lose one game and everything changes. It's difficult, but it's the reality.

"If I read the press, I'm out of a job. But I feel strong. I've been taught to never give up and to keep working hard until the very last moment."

Mourinho spent three years at Real, between 2010 and 2013, winning three trophies, including the LaLiga title, in the process.
