Due to transfer ban: Zidane’s sons pause
Probably due to the confusion about the transfer ban by the world football association Fifa, none of the four sons of the new Real head coach Zinedine Zidane (43) played for the various teams of the Real Madrid youth academy at the weekend. The royal and local rivals Atletico had been suspended by Fifa for two transfer windows (summer 2016 and winter 2017). Transfers of underage players by the clubs were criticized. Real had admitted that two of Zidane’s sons were among the 39 players examined.
