Zinedine Zidane granted an interview with Telefoot as part of the French TV channel's 40th anniversary celebrations. The Real Madrid coach showed his most personal side and spoke about the importance of family and the part his family has played in his own successes.

Zizou, or Yidaz as his father Smaïl always calls him, broke down in tears when a video was shown of Zidane Senior explaining that he loves his son and his grandsons and always tells them that he loves them when he phones as it was something he never did when they were younger. 

Zinedine Zidane said of his family: "My father is an example to me. My father and my mother have always given us guidance through life. And when you become a father yourself, have a professional career and a healthy emotional life, I think you can say you have done a good job. My parents educated us well and there is no  price for that. I try to educate my sons and bring them up like my parents did with me".
