The latest from Don Balon is that Zidane has a verbal agreement on a big-money contract to take over at Old Trafford, and the outlet also lists seven Real Madrid players his old club fear he could be interested in.
The 46-year-old was a big hit during his time in charge at the Bernabeu and so it would not be a big surprise if he felt it necessary to link up with some of those players again.
Many of the names listed would also be upgrades on some players currently struggling at United, especially Gareth Bale, Toni Kroos, Raphael Varane and Casemiro.
