January 22, 2021 French coach of Real Madrid and former world champion Zinedine Zidane tested positive for coronavirus.

The Blancos coach will not be on the bench against Alaves, and in the next few games, due to his positivity.

David Bettoni, the second coach of Real Madrid, will take care of the media and act as the first coach.



The coach yesterday directed training during which he spoke to his players after the Copa del Rey debacle against Alcoyano.

Zidane will not go to Vitoria and the development of the disease will determine the timing for his return to the bench in the next matches, against Levante on January 30, Huesca on the weekend of February 6-7 and against Getafe on February 9.
