This season's Champions League final, featuring Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund is scheduled to be held at Wembley Stadium on June 1.
The Spanish giants are poised as favourites to further assert their European dominance, having secured their sixth UCL final appearance in the last 11 years. Of the last 10, they have won five.
Will Zidane take the Bayern job?
Meanwhile, L’Equipe has cast doubt on the rumours linking Zidane to Bayern Munich, suggesting instead that the Frenchman is more inclined towards taking over at Manchester United.
Reports indicate that Zizou saw the Bayern managerial post as unattractive for two main reasons: he's not keen on residing in Bavaria and his limited proficiency in German poses a significant obstacle.
However, the allure of winning trophies easily with the Bavarians, along with the club's financial prowess, could present strong incentives for a manager of Zidane's calibre to contemplate.
