Real Madrid Boss Eyes Zidane
MADRID, April 16 (Reuters) - Real Madrid president Lorenzo Sanz said on Friday his club have been offered unsettled Juventus midfielder Zinedine Zidane -- and the Spanish giants are keen to sign him at the end of the season.
Zidane was quoted this week as saying he wants to move from Italy to Spain because his Anadalucia-born wife was homesick. Sanz believes the French World Cup hero could be wearing the white of Real next season.
"I've asked after Zidane's condition because he has already been offered to us," Sanz was quoted as saying by Spanish sports daily AS. "We like the idea of bringing him in.
"At the end of this season we are going to sign new players. We have the money available and there will be transfers." Sanz has promised a Real revolution at the close of the current campaign, which has seen the club struggle in the league and exit the European Cup at the quarter-final stage.
There has been speculation that the club will look to cash in on some of the big names who helped them win the European Cup last season, with the likes of Davor Suker and Christian Panucci tipped to be leaving the Bernabeu.
