I do not feel that I am the best: Zidane

CAIRO – 22 October 2017: Real Madrid’s French coach Zinedine Zidane, who is a favorite for next Monday's “Best" award for the best FIFA coach of 2017, said on Saturday that he did not feel "at all" that he is the best, and moved the reason for his success to his players and the greatness of Real Madrid.

“I feel lucky to be here, in the best club in the world, with these players,” pointed out Zidane. “I do everything to be a coach confirmed. I am trying. What I do, I like it. When you are doing things with passion, inevitably you will get better. I am like the others, I’m improving day by day,” he concluded.

“To answer the question and be sincere, if it gives me (this award), I take it with great pleasure. But if the question is: ‘Is it that I am the best coach in the world?’ No, and I’m sure,” said the Frenchman in a press conference.

Zidane is set to meet, with Real Madrid, Eibar in the 9th round of the Spanish League (La Liga). He is looking forward to decreasing the 5-point gap behind Barcelona, who has not yet lost a match in La Liga this season.
