Former Dutch international goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar revealed some exciting aspects of the life of his former teammate, Juventus, Zinedine Zidane, the current coach of Real Madrid. Van der Sar said Zidane was at the height of humility, despite his stardom.
The current CEO of the Dutch club Ajax confirmed that Zidane was insisting on attending the exercises with the Juve with a car that was considered shocking and surprising to everyone at the time. He told ZIGO Sport: Zidane was known for his modesty, but he surprised us a lot when he insisted on attending an ordinary Fiat car, in exchange for all the players arriving at the training headquarters with luxury cars such as Ferrari and others.
He continued: At first it was difficult to communicate with him in the English language, he was only fluent in French, and with it the Italian language, but slowly he learned English. He added: Zidane was on board a Fiat car, with very ordinary jeans and adidas shoes, in exchange for all the players wearing luxury brands of clothing, not to mention the cars.
It is noteworthy that Zidane spent five years with Al-Youfi, where he played 209 games, scored 31 goals, and won two league titles.
