I have the Real Madrid ‘DNA’ ―Zidane

REAL Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane is not worried about his contract situation, with just a year left on his current deal.

Zinedine Zidane proclaimed he has the Real Madrid ‘DNA’ and said the club is his life as he prepares Los Blancos for the Champions League final against Juventus.

Madrid are seeking to become the first team to defend the title since the competition was rebranded into the Champions League when they travel to Cardiff for Saturday’s showpiece.

Zidane is yet to sign a new contract extension despite leading Madrid to their first league title since the 2011-12 campaign but the Frenchman is relaxed about his future.

Zinedine Zidane is very confident in winning the final.

“I have one more year on my contract but that doesn’t mean anything,” Zidane told reporters on Tuesday. “I want to be at this club but it depends on what you do on the field.

“I think the club is happy with what we’re doing and I’m only interested in that. The future: Saturday and nothing else.

“I have the Real Madrid DNA, that’s for sure. It’s my home. Everyone has always been very affectionate towards me and I have always defended the values of this club.

“I’ve experienced spectacular things with this club as a player, assistant coach and head coach. I’ll always be a Real Madrid fan because the club is my life.

“I’m enjoying this moment because I know that one day it will end. I’m on top of my job and we’re close to doing something extraordinary, but I’m not thinking about of leaving an important mark in the history of the club. We work hard and that’s the spirit of this team.”
