Zidane and Rodgers are the two managers rumoured to have been prioritised by the Manhcester United board as replacements for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Last week reports suggested that a verbal agreement had been made between Manchester United and the Leicester City manager. This was suddneltly spread across social media but nothing concrete has come out.
According to the Express, Manchester United's board have now turned their attention to Zinedine Zidane, making him number one on their list.
With the squad and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer returning to training on Monday, these rumours won't go away. Altough Ole may be taking training this week, there's doubts over the future weeks.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as another tough run of games coming up but whether is will be in charge for them all, we will have to wait and see.
Are Manchester United really in for Zinedine Zidane and Brendan Rodgers or is it just spin from the club to please the fans?
