Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane would be leaving the Spanish side at the end of the season. 

Oracle of football transfers, Fabrizio Romano, Wednesday dropped the hint that the French talisman has decided to leave the Spanish side. 

“Zinedine Zidane has decided to LEAVE Real Madrid with immediate effect,” the Italian journalist who has impeccably called many movement in football rightly said in a tweet on Wednesday. 

Zidane, 48, was first appointed as coach at Real Madrid in 2014, leading the Spanish giant to three consecutive Champions League victories in 2015/2016, 2017 and 2018. 

He returned to the club in 2019 but has been unable to inspire the team to the high-flying heights achieved in his first stint, both in the La Liga and UEFA Champions League. 

Madrid are yet to make official statement on the exit of Zidane.
