Ex Real Madrid coach, Zinedine Zidane leads race as next Brazil head coach

According to French reports, Zinedine Zidane is being considered for the vacant Brazil job.

Since leaving Real Madrid in May 2021, Zidane has been out of work. Before Manchester United hired Erik ten Hag, he was linked to dozens of jobs, including those with the French national team and Manchester United.

According to a report in the French newspaper L'Equipe, the 50-year-old former Real and France midfielder has now emerged as a potential replacement for Tite.

According to a French publication, the Brazilian Football Association (FA) are hoping to appoint a foreigner after Tite resigned following Brazil's shocking World Cup quarterfinal exit. Zinedine Zidane is reportedly being linked with the Brazil position as he seeks a return to management.

Others who have been linked to Brazil's role include Mauricio Pochettino, Thomas Tuchel, or Rafael Bentez.

Although Zinedine Zidane has been rumored to be a potential successor to Didier Deschamps, there is an increasing likelihood that he will continue to lead the French national team.

If you remember, Tite resigned as manager of the Brazilian national team just hours after they lost the World Cup.
