Zinedine Zidane has left his post as Real Madrid manager for the second time in his managerial career, the Spanish club confirmed.
While there has been no comment as of yet from Zidane or Real president Florentino Perez, a club statement said ‘Real Madrid is and will always be’ Zidane’s home.
There have been doubts about the Frenchman’s after Madrid were pipped to the LaLiga title last weekend by rivals Atletico Madrid.
A club statement read: ‘Real Madrid CF announces that Zinedine Zidane has decided to end his current stage as coach of our club.
“It is now time to respect his decision and show him our appreciation for his professionalism, dedication and passion in all these years, and for what his figure represents for Real Madrid.
“Zidane is one of the great myths of Real Madrid and his legend goes beyond what he has been as a coach and player of our club.
“He knows that he is at the heart of Real Madrid and that Real Madrid is and will always be his home.”
The Frenchman had been in charge across two spells since 2016, and has won three Champions Leagues in the Spanish capital.
