“The training is always with the ball. When you have experimented with Italians, as I have done with Conte or Sarri, you have much less fun. Everything is more framed,” he said while speaking to L’Equipe. He also revealed that it was during the Euro 2016 that Zidane had told him that it would be good if he joins the team. According to the former Chelsea player also said that he identifies with Madrid and it was a dream for him to be there. He also opined that Zidane was his idol ever since he was a kid.

“Ever since I started playing in my garden as a kid, they were the club I supported. Zidane was my idol. When I watched him on television he was magic. The stadium, when I saw it on television, was magical. And the white jersey, impeccable. For me it was exceptional,” he explained. He last featured in the La Liga game against Real Sociedad.
