FC Bayern is receiving one rejection after another in its search for a new coach. However, superstar Zinedine Zidane is apparently still not an issue.
Those responsible at FC Bayern are still unable to find a coach for the coming season. The bosses around sporting director Max Eberl keep receiving rejections. Nevertheless, Zinedine Zidane is apparently still being ruled out as a candidate in the boardroom at Säbener Straße. This has now been reported by BILD.
According to the report, the former successful Real Madrid coach is still not an option for the German record champions. Even after all the recent cancellations, the club is still not prepared to sign the Frenchman. According to the report, no talks have taken place.
And this despite the fact that Bayern have already received six rejections in their search for a coach, all of which are publicly known. Favourite candidate Xabi Alonso wanted to stay with the new German champions Bayer Leverkusen. National coach Julian Nagelsmann first negotiated with Bayern, but then decided in favour of extending his contract with the DFB. Talks with Ralf Rangnick were already at an advanced stage, but the 65-year-old preferred to remain the Austrian national team coach.

Munich then endeavoured to recruit Oliver Glasner, but the Austrian had to stay at Crystal Palace. They were unable to reach an agreement with Thomas Tuchel on a turnaround after the separation. In the end, they turned down Roger Schmidt, who wants to remain coach at Benfica Lisbon.
Zidane won the Champions League three times
Zidane would actually be a great solution due to his proven success and his personality. Among other things, he won the Champions League three times as coach of Real Madrid. The 51-year-old left the Whites in the summer of 2021 and has not coached another team since.
Zidane is probably not an option for Bayern because he speaks neither German nor sufficient English.
