Zinedine Zidane 'is being seriously considered as a replacement for Andrea Pirlo at Juventus' as his time as Real Madrid manager draws to its natural conclusion.
Real's tame loss to Chelsea in the Champions League semi-finals last week has only heightened speculation the Frenchman will depart in the summer - even though he has one year remaining on his contract.
And reports in Italy suggest that the Juventus club legend could be set for a romantic return to Turin, with Pirlo set to depart his post following a disappointing season.
