Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane informs the club's players that he will be leaving the Bernabeu this summer, according to a report.

Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane has reportedly informed the club's players that he will be leaving the Bernabeu at the end of the 2020-21 campaign.

Los Blancos are still in the La Liga title race but will need leaders Atletico Madrid to drop points in at least one of their final two matches of the season in order to stand a chance of retaining the trophy.

Rumours of a Zidane exit have gathered pace in recent days, with the Frenchman thought to have become 'tired and annoyed' this season, while he is allegedly no longer enjoying the role due to the changes that have occurred due to the coronavirus outbreak.

According to Goal, the 48-year-old will lead the team in their final two La Liga matches against Athletic Bilbao and Villarreal before standing down.

The report claims that Zidane informed the Real Madrid squad of his decision before last weekend's 2-2 draw with Sevilla in Spain's top flight.

The former midfielder, who is being linked with a switch to Juventus, is in his second spell in charge of the Spanish giants and has enjoyed substantial success at the helm, winning two La Liga titles and three Champions League crowns.
