#2 Zinedine Zidane
Unquestionably one of the greatest footballers to ever play the game, Zidane retired in 2006 and it would be eight years before he would dip his toes in the managerial world with his appointment at Real Madrid Castilla.

Before that, he served as Sporting Director of the club as well as being Carlo Ancelotti's assistant manager when Real Madrid won their tenth UEFA Champions League.
His spell at Castilla was mixed but when Madrid sacked Rafael Benitez in January 2016 it was their former hero they turned to, to replace him.
What an impact he had. During his two and a half years in charge, Zidane won nine trophies including three consecutive Champions League titles, a feat that had never previously been achieved since the format of the competition changed.
He also won one league title, a Spanish Super Cup, two FIFA Club World Cups and two UEFA Super Cups before surprising the football world by stepping down at the end of last season.
Seemingly happy to have a break, there will be many managers nervously looking over their shoulders while Zidane remains on the market.
