It seems that there is some great news in store for the legendary Zinedine Zidane’s die-hard fans. The former footballer was recently spotted at the Mumbai Airport as he arrived in the city along with his wife. The 43-year-old is in the city to attend a promotional event.

Interestingly, he had been signed as brand ambassador by a leading reality developer sometime ago. As expected, the development created a major buzz as it marked the first time that a major international star was signed on for such a project.

For the uninitiated, Zinedine was one of France’s most charismatic and talented stars. He is perhaps best remembered for guiding the national team to victory in the 1998 FIFA World Cup. He ended his professional career in 2006. Since then, he has been busy with charity work. Moreover, in 2015, he was appointed manager of the Real Madrid club.
