France head coach Zinedine Zidane has said he could take charge of Juventus in the future.

According to RMC Sport, Zidane said his former coach Marcello Lippi taught him to move forward when discussing the possibility. He recalled that when he first arrived in Turin, he was not playing well and felt he was not living up to the expectations of the media and fans. Lippi told him he needed to play under his guidance. “Manage Juventus? Why not in the future,” Zidane said.

The former midfielder played for the Turin club from 1996 to 2001. The 54-year-old began managing the France national team last summer. His contract runs until the summer of 2030.

Zidane won the Champions League three times and the Spanish league title twice with Real Madrid.
