Zinedine Zidane reportedly wants to take charge of Juventus despite interest from Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea.

Zinedine Zidane wants Juventus amid Chelsea and Tottenham interest

RMC Sport have reported that Zidane, who has been linked with Tottenham and Chelsea, wants to take charge of his former club Juventus if the job comes up in the summer of 2023.

Juventus are not going to win the Serie A title this season, but the former UEFA Champions League winners could end up in the top four.

Sport reported in March that Chelsea have the former Real Madrid boss on their radar as a potential candidate for the managerial role at Stamford Bridge.

Sky Italy claimed last month that Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy has interest in bringing Zidane to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium at the end of the season.

HITC Verdict: Not a surprise

We are not at all surprised that Zinedine Zidane fancies a move to Juventus and not to Chelsea or Tottenham Hotspur.

After all, the Frenchman, who won the UEFA Champions League three years in a row with Real Madrid as a manager, is a former Juventus player.

Described as “exceptional” by former Tottenham head coach Antonio Conte in The Daily Mail, the 50-year-old won the Serie A title twice as a player.
