Real Madrid Legend Linked as Potential New Manager for Struggling German National Team”

Since their triumph in the 2014 World Cup, the German national team has experienced a consistent decline. Disappointingly, they were eliminated in the group stages in the subsequent two World Cup editions and have struggled to make a significant impact in the EUROs. Now, with Hansi Flick’s departure, the team is in pursuit of a new manager, and intriguingly, a Real Madrid icon is among the candidates being considered.

When Hansi Flick assumed the role, there were high hopes that he could rejuvenate the German national team, given his stellar tenure at Bayern Munich, which yielded seven trophies in just a season-and-a-half. Regrettably, those expectations were not met.

In stark contrast, the German national team has seldom appeared weaker, having suffered defeats in four of their last five matches. Flick’s tenure came to an end following a 4-1 loss to Japan.

Now, the German national team faces the crucial task of appointing a capable manager to steer them back on course. According to reports from Madrid Universal, BILD has identified Zinedine Zidane as a potential candidate to succeed Flick.

Zidane, a true legend at Real Madrid, is renowned for managing the club on two separate occasions, during which he achieved remarkable success, including a historic three consecutive Champions League victories.

Since his departure from Real Madrid in the summer of 2021, Zidane has remained without a managerial role, and it’s evident that he is selective about the opportunities he considers.

Nevertheless, it currently seems unlikely that Zidane would be inclined to take on the role of managing the German national team. While Germany undoubtedly possesses a pool of promising talents, their recent string of results suggests that any manager would face a daunting task in swiftly reversing their fortunes.
