Zinedine Zidane has suffered his first disappointment as Real Madrid coach in his second stint in charge. One of the key players he wanted to help restructure the squad was Atletico Madrid’s Lucas Hernandez, per OKDIARIO, but the Frenchman has signed for Bayern Munich.
When Madrid got in contact with his representative Manuel Garcia, the response was clear - they were too late. The deal with Bayern had been sealed and was announced for 80m euros.
After that disappointment, Madrid put the foot on the gas and signed Militao from Porto, a player Zidane didn’t mind signing even though he wasn’t on his own target list.
The reality is that Hernandez was a priority because he is more experienced and versatile, able to play at left-back and centre-back.
