Real Madrid's Zinedine Zidane: 'My future not dependent on Champions League'

Zidane: 'Real future not dependent on CL'

Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane has insisted that his future at the club is not dependent on winning the Champions League this season.

European football's elite competition represents Los Blancos' only hope of claiming silverware in 2017-18, but the Frenchman has claimed that he will remain in charge regardless of their success in it.

"It's independent of that," Zidane told the club's official website.

"Today I'm the coach and I want to continue at this club.

"But it's not important. What matters to everyone is thinking about tomorrow's game and that's it."

Real are one game away from the Champions League final, heading into the second leg of their semi-final against Bayern Munich with a 2-1 advantage and a pair of away goals.
