It's Official! Real Madrid point Zinedine Zidane as the new manager of the 'Whites' all over again, just nine months after his departure and the debacle of the team.

Zidane has a complicated task at hand as Real Madrid needs to close the season securing a place in the UEFA Champions League 19/20 season.

Keylor Navas, Marcelo, and Isco were crucial pieces in Zidane's historical era in charge of Real Madrid, which could mean they could be back to center stage and leave the bench, that could also end up wanting to stay at Madrid.

Zizou knows the players very well, and they respect the strategist so it would be easy for the Frech coach to retake the lead of the squad as their foundations.

Real Madrid won with Zinedine Zidane three consecutive Champions Leagues, a Spanish league, one Spanish Super Cup, three Club World Cups, and two UEFA Super Cups.

Zidane and Keylor Navas

Keylor was Zidane's first option in the defensive line besides the captain Sergio Ramos; he knew the importance the Tico had with the rest of the team and to bring a new goalkeeper like Courtois could break the feels of the dressing room.

According to MisterChip, the Belgian goalkeeper is one of the worst keepers the Merengues have had in closed shots. Cortouis has 67% while Keylor Navas has an 80% effectiveness.
