Bayern Munich duo…
In that Mirror piece previously mentioned, Zidane has also been linked as an admirer of two players currently on the books at Bayern Munich.
One of those is technically a Real Madrid player, James Rodriguez, who is on loan at the Allianz Arena after struggling for regular playing time during Zidane’s stint in charge of Real.
It remains to be seen if the Colombia international would be keen on a reunion, but he would likely see more action for the Red Devils, as another player who could be an ideal upgrade on Sanchez, Anthony Martial, Juan Mata and others.
Failing that, that report also links Thiago Alcantara as an option. Like Kroos, he’d fill that Michael Carrick role perfectly and seems just what the club needs in that area.
