ZINEDINE ZIDANE ENDORSES A PREMIER LEAGUE MIDFIELDER REAL MADRID SHOULD SIGN

Zinedine Zidane, the former Real Madrid manager, recommended a Premier League midfielder to his former club while he was still in charge.

According to Diario Gol, Zidane, who led Real Madrid to three UEFA Champions League titles, recommended that Youri Tielemans be signed from Leicester City.

Tielemans was impressive for Leicester City last season, which piqued the interest of top European clubs.

Tielemans has been on Real Madrid's radar for some time, with the club still looking to bolster their midfield.

However, Tielemans has not been a priority for Real Madrid, with the club's hierarchy preferring to sign Jude Bellingham from Borussia Dortmund.

Real Madrid have already signed players such as Eduardo Camavinga and Aurelien Tchouameni, but they need more depth. As a result, they are reconsidering Zidane's recommendation.
