Zinedine Zidane is said to want to reunite with Real Madrid's Casemiro if he is appointed manager of Paris Saint-Germain. 

Following PSG's Champions League defeat to Real Madrid, Zidane has been tipped as one of the favourites to succeed Mauricio Pochettino at the end of the season. 

PSG sporting director Leonardo recently denied reports that his club had already made contact with Zidane, who is still rumored to be a candidate for the France job.

 

According to El Nacional, Zidane has already identified Casemiro as an ideal acquisition for his PSG project, with Real Madrid potentially willing to sell for the right price. 

According to the report, Zidane is also interested in reuniting with Karim Benzema, but Florentino Perez is hesitant to part ways with the free-scoring Frenchman. 

Casemiro, now 30, has 30 goals and 28 assists in 322 appearances for Los Blancos in all competitions, and his contract with the club was extended until 2025 last summer.
