According to Saudi press reports on Sunday, Al Hilal SFC has entered into fierce competition with several European clubs and world teams to get the signature of France's Algerian asset Zinedine Zidane.

The sports website "so3ody”, which published the news citing an unnamed source, stated that "fierce competition from world clubs and teams will reduce the chances of Al Hilal appointing the Frenchman Zinedine Zidane as its coach, while the leader is going through a period of shaky results with Argentine Ramon Diaz."

The website added: "These options come amid interest from Al Hilal in obtaining Zidane's signature, according to recent reports from Saudi Arabia."

The website added: "The changes in Saudi football continue to be talked about during the current winter transfer market and the negotiations of Rosen League clubs with new stars or coaches."

Portuguese forward Cristiano Ronaldo joined Al Nasr FC over the past few days, opening the door to more major names joining the world of football.

Al Hilal will oust Argentina's Ramon Diaz, who has been struggling with results since the start of the current season, should an agreement be reached with Zinedine Zidane, according to "so3ody” sports.

According to the Spanish newspaper Marca, many clubs and teams are competing for the opportunity to appoint Zinedine Zidane as their head coach.

The Brazilian team is trying to get Frenchman Zinedine Zidane signed, especially after the French Federation's Technical Director Didier Deschamps renewed his contract, which ended his dream of training the French national football team.

The Portuguese team provides an opportunity for Frenchman Zinedine Zidane to return to training, while Juventus is expected to enter the race in the near future.

Zidane was a candidate to succeed Deschamps, but Mbappe's comrades at the Qatar World Cup had the French Federation extend Deschamps' contract until 2026.
