World Cup hero Zinedine Zidane has endorsed Samir Nasri as the man to lead France to the next level over the course of the decade.Nasri, who, like Zidane, hails from Marseille, has excited critics in France with his superb displays for Premier League club Arsenal, and ‘Zizou’ believes that the 23-year-old has the ability to transfer those performances into the framework of Laurent Blanc’s improving side.
“I truly think that Samir has a big career ahead of him. For me, he represents the future of the France team, our greatest hope for the future,” the former playmaker, who famously scored a brace in the 1998 World Cup final, told the media.
Meanwhile, Reuters report that Zidane is in the process of suing comedian Christophe Aleveque and Sportmag for remarks made over the 38-year-old’s endorsement of Qatar to host the 2022 World Cup finals.
“Mister Zinedine Zidane considers that these remarks are harmful to his honour, his dignity, his integrity, his reputation as a man and a public person as well as that of his family,” lawyer Alberto Brusso indicated.
