'No regrets': Former Manchester City midfielder Brahim Diaz still has 'affection' for Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane, despite being loaned out to Italian giants AC Milan

Former Manchester City midfielder Brahim Diaz insists he still has 'a lot of affection' for Zinedine Zidane despite the Real Madrid boss offloading him to AC Milan.

Diaz, who joined Madrid from City for £15.5million in January 2019, had stated his desire to stay in the Spanish capital but struggled to nail down a regular first-term spot under Zidane before he sealed a recent loan switch to Italy.

And while admitting he 'will wait and see' on a return to Madrid one day, the 21-year-old insists he does not regret joining the club from Premier League side City last year.
