Whether he likes it or not, he will be one of the attractions of the next Ligue 2 championship, if he hangs up playing time. Enzo Zidane has signed up with Rodez Aveyron Football (RAF) for a season. The 26-year-old midfielder, Zinédine’s eldest son, will wear number 5, his father’s when he shone among the Real Madrid Galacticos.

Enzo’s journey is more chaotic. Trained in the White House in 2004, he mainly evolved there in reserve, with Castilla. The big brother of goalkeeper Luca then traveled since 2017 at Deportivo Alavés (Spanish L2), Lausanne (Swiss L1), Rayo Majadahonda (Spanish L2), Aves (Portuguese L1) and finally in Almeria (Spanish L2) .
The RAF will therefore be the first French club of Enzo, which does not yet land in unknown territory: his mother Véronique was born in the prefecture of Aveyron, where the Zidane family keeps strong ties. In 2012, Zizou even became a shareholder of the club, 15th in the last season of L2.
