Former Real Madrid manager, Zinedine Zidane has named four players who motivated him while as a coach managing the Los Blancos.
The four players are Cristiano Ronaldo, Luka Modric, Karim Benzema and Toni Kroos.
Zidane won eleven trophies during his two spells at Madrid between 2016 and 2018 and between 2019 and 2021.
Speaking with L’Equipe, the Frenchman described the aforementioned players as very high-level talent, adding that they never lost possession.
“When I was a coach at Real Madrid. I didn’t say anything. I watched Luka Modric, Toni Kroos, Cristiano Ronaldo, or Karim Benzema train,” Zidane said.
“There was nothing to say except watch; they were all so talented and professional. They never lost possession.
“That is what motivated me as a coach too — to have that very, very high level of talent.”
