Paris Saint-Germain consider approach for Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane?

Paris Saint-Germain have reportedly identified Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane as a potential replacement for Unai Emery.

PSG currently sit nine points clear at the top of the Ligue 1 table and qualified for the last 16 of the Champions League by finishing top of a group which also included Bayern Munich.

However, according to Diario Sport, Emery is still struggling to keep his job at the Parc des Princes and PSG are already considering possible successors.

Despite his struggles at Real, Zidane is said to be near the top of PSG's wishlist with it being suggested that the the club would be happy to appoint a big name who is French and has experience of handling high-profile players.

Zidane still has two-and-a-half years remaining on his contract at the Bernabeu, but the 45-year-old's future is in doubt with Real sitting 19 points adrift of leaders Barcelona in the La Liga standings.

The two teams play each other in the knockout stages of the Champions League in February.
