The Frenchman has previous coaching experience with Real Madrid, as he was the part of Carlo Ancelotti’s coaching staff under whom they win Champions League and also managed Real Madrid Castilla.
And Harry Redknapp feels Zinedine Zidane could emulate Kenny Dalglish.
“It’s a little bit like Kenny Dalglish,” Redknapp told Paulo Di Canio’s Italian show House of Football. “Kenny finished playing at Liverpool. When he finished playing he was player-manager for one year before he became manager. And he did a fantastic job at Liverpool. Zidane has a big chance.
“He’s been working with the B team, he was a fantastic player, he has great players to go and work with so I don’t see any reason why he can’t do a great job there.
“When you have [Gareth] Bale, [Cristiano] Ronaldo, [Luka] Modric, [Karim] Benzema and all these top players I don’t think it’s so difficult for him. They would respect him so I’m sure he has a great chance to do well.”
