Asked about the Cristiano Ronaldo case, Zinedine Zidane sidestepped the issue and limited himself to praising the 41-year-old. "We have to acknowledge his great career," said the France head coach on the eve of the Nations League clash with Belgium. "I had the good fortune to coach him. He helped me win many titles.
I take my hat off to Cristiano Ronaldo. I have always had great respect for those with whom I have shared time."
