“I believe that it is only you that can save Manchester United from getting relegated this season. Please accept the job and save from being relegated” – Casemiro has already sent a message to Manchester United regarding Zinedine Zidane amid recent links between the French manager and the club.

Ex-Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane remains linked with the unexpected possibility of becoming Manchester United’s next head coach.

Manchester United midfielder Casemiro has praised Zinedine Zidane’s greatest strength as a coach, highlighting his ability to connect with players in the dressing room.

The Frenchman, who has been without a managerial role since leaving Real Madrid in 2021, has recently been linked to the possibility of replacing Erik ten Hag at Old Trafford.

Although Ten Hag remains in charge for now and is set to lead United against Brentford this weekend, he is under pressure to reverse the club’s poor form, with five consecutive games without a win and three league matches without a goal.

Following the appointment of Thomas Tuchel as England’s new manager, the pool of top-tier coaches available has become limited. Zidane, who has only ever managed Real Madrid, has been linked to the United job several times in the past.

However, in 2018, his agent, Alain Migliaccio, downplayed the likelihood of Zidane coaching in England, citing a lack of interest.

Despite this, rumors of Zidane potentially taking charge at Old Trafford persist. Should he ever do so, Casemiro, who played 205 times under Zidane at Madrid, scoring 26 goals and providing 19 assists, has already spoken about Zidane’s management style.

In 2017, Casemiro noted that Zidane understands players as individuals, recognizing that their emotions can vary, and knows how to address them accordingly. This, he said, is one of Zidane’s key strengths in connecting with the team.
