Zinedine Zidane rejects the chance to become the new head coach of Qatari outfit Al-Sadd, according to a report.

Zinedine Zidane has reportedly rejected the chance to become the new head coach of Al-Sadd.

The Qatari outfit are on the lookout for a new manager, having allowed Xavi to secure a return to Barcelona after more than two years in the dugout.

According to Mundo Deportivo, Al-Sadd approached Zidane with a lucrative offer to become their new boss, but the Frenchman turned down the opportunity.

The report claims that the Frenchman is still in no rush to return to club management, as he weighs up his options after leaving Real Madrid earlier this year.

Manchester United continue to be credited with an interest in the 49-year-old amid suggestions that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will soon be relieved of his duties as head coach.

Zidane, who is thought to be keen on the France job when it becomes available, is allegedly currently learning English, with a move to the Premier League a possibility in the future.
