One of the greatest footballers of all-time, Zinedine Zidane celebrates his 41st birthday today. While the Algerian-born Frenchman no longer plays professionally (even though he still could dominate MLS), he has stayed in the limelight due to his many charity games and his role as Real Madrid’s Director of Football. He’s even recently popped up in rumors as a potential replacement for departed coach Jose Mourinho, although considering his lack of experience and coaching certificates it seems unlikely we’d see Zizou at the helm. Nevertheless, a birthday is a fine reason to take a look back at the career of one of the game’s most accomplished players. These are Zinedine Zidane’s 20 Greatest Moments.
