Nothing ventured, nothing gained. But he who aims too high rarely achieves more. After the Algerian fiasco during the 2024 Africa Cup of Nations, Zinédine Zidane was approached by the Algerian federation for the position of coach, according to information from The team. The president of the federation, Walid Sadi, contacted the former Real Madrid coach, who, despite obvious ties to his origins, politely refused, while saying he was flattered.
Algeria, last in its group and prematurely eliminated from the CAN, separated a few days ago from its coach Djamel Belmadi and is looking for a successor. In addition to Zidane, well-known names such as Hervé Renard and Vahid Halilhodzic but also, more surprisingly, Jorge Sampaoli, would be in the sights of the Fennecs, in search of renewal before the 2026 World Cup.
