Contents of Radio Foot today: the end of a second term for Zidane.

After a goalless season, he left Real Madrid for the third time, quietly.

- At the end of a less brilliant mandate than the first (January 2016-May 2018), after a great playing career.

- Predictable departure?

Did the lack of a title this season weigh in the balance, or was it decided earlier?

Where will it bounce back?

Publicity

Less predictable, Antonio Conte who drops Inter. The coach of the nerazzurri had succeeded in countering the stranglehold of Juve on the "scudetti". He disagrees with the austerity cure promised to the club by the Chinese leaders, in the middle of a new story. He had left Chelsea and Turin at odds too. - Who to succeed him? Not Massimiliano Alegri whose name had been mentioned - Appeared at Real too, the Tuscan finally returns to the fold. For a new lease on the “Vecchia Signora” side? Take over from Andrea Pirlo, author of a first complicated exercise. - Zidane, Conte, Pirlo, we also mention the return of Pochettino on the side of "Spurs"? - In France, what leads for Christophe Galtier, very courted, and for Rudi Garcia? - "No es Amarillo, es oro!" Of the'gold for Villarreal title "Marca". At the end of an endless penalty shootout, the Europa League has therefore shifted to the side of the yellows, who brandish a 1st trophy. - Consecration for Unai Emery, and a 4th coronation in 5 finals.

With Annie Gasnier this Thursday: Marc Libbra, Frank Simon and Bruno Constant.

Technique / Director: Laurent Salerno, preparation: David Fintzel / Pierre Guérin.
