Julio Baptista Backs Zinedine Zidane for Manchester United Manager Role

Former Brazil international, Julio Baptista, has expressed his belief that former Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane could be the perfect fit to take over at Manchester United in the future. The current manager, Erik ten Hag, is facing uncertainty after a challenging season with the Red Devils.

Despite finishing third last season and securing the Carabao Cup, Ten Hag’s side has struggled this campaign, suffering 16 defeats across various competitions. With speculation surrounding his future, Zidane has emerged as a potential candidate to lead the team at Old Trafford.

Baptista, who played alongside Zidane during his career, shared his admiration for the French football legend, describing him as the best player he has ever played with. He highlighted Zidane’s exceptional coaching abilities and vast experience, particularly his success in winning the Champions League.

“I think he will be a Premier League manager someday,” Baptista stated in an interview with Ladbrokes (via Metro). “He is an incredible coach, with amazing experience, so I can see that happening. I can see him going to Manchester United.”

With Zidane’s impressive track record and reputation in the football world, his potential arrival at Manchester United could bring a new era of success and excitement to the club. As fans eagerly await the next chapter in the team’s journey, the prospect of Zidane taking the helm has sparked anticipation and speculation among football enthusiasts worldwide.
