Pérez suggested today that Zinedine Zidane could be the next manager of Real Madrid. With Jupp Heynckes opting for retirement, PSG not playing ball over Carlo Ancelotti and Mick McCarthy settled at Ipswich, Real Madrid look like they are facing a struggle to find their next manager. Speaking on Spanish televisionPérecasually floated the suggestion of Zizou for the hotseat

"[Zidane] could be the coach," ESPN report. "He has the qualifications and he is a madridista. We have not yet thought about it because we have been very scrupulous with the steps. But he fulfils all the requirements, for sure."

The thought of Zidane headbutting an irate David Moyes on the Bernabéu sideline may have to wait though as Pérez suddenly remebered himself and suggested that the Frenchman may need some more managerial experience first.

"It is a subject we need to evaluate," he said. "In the first stage it is a little… I do not want to say risky, but he needs to be battle-hardened."

We can but hope. In fact Manchester United should hire Eric Cantona, Napoli should get Maradona on board and Stefan Effenberg should return to Bayern Munich and we could have the most memorable European Cup in years.
