Zidane resigns as Real Madrid coach

The Frenchman has vacated his post as Real Madrid boss

Zidane stated that for Real Madrid to continue winning, there is the need for him to leave the club.

"The team needs to continue winning and needs a change,"

"I made this decision because I love this club, I love (Florentino Perez) and I am grateful towards him," he said.

The former Real, Juventus and Bordeaux midfielder made Champions League history when he led his side to three consecutive titles earlier this month. He is one of only three managers, along with Carlo Ancelotti and Bob Paisley, to have secured three European successes.

Zidane was under contract until 2020 but called time on his spell in charge after a third place finish in La Liga, behind Barcelona and City rivals Atletico Madrid.
