Marcel Desailly has revealed that his former France teammate, Zinedine Zidane, is keen on managing the French national team.

Desailly stated that Zidane declined high-profile job offers from both Manchester United and Chelsea.

He claimed that the former Real Madrid boss was presented with open-ended financial offers by the two Premier League sides but chose to walk away, prioritizing his ambition to coach Les Bleus.

Desailly added that Zidane has the vision and ability to guide the next generation of French talent to global success.

Desailly told Oddspedia: “Will Zinedine Zidane be tempted by Saudi Arabia?

“Well he had a blank cheque on the table from Chelsea and a blank cheque from Manchester United and turned them down – he isn’t in it for the money. He likes to travel and always keeps an eye on the France national team.

“He’s ready because Didier Deschamps has started the transition.”
