In a surprising turn of events, Zinedine Zidane, the iconic coach of Real Madrid, announced his departure from the club on May 27, 2021. The news came as a shock to many, considering Zidane had agreed to return as coach in March 2019 after an 8-month break.

Zidane's decision to leave was due to his desire to move on, as he felt he had fulfilled his mission with the club. He expressed that his focus on winning trophies and the importance of people, emotions, and lives were not valued by the club.
