Zidane has been invited to visit Kashmir and Al Khuddam Haj and Umrah and Services, a Srinagar-based firm, is lobbying for the former French striker to tour Kashmir.
World famed soccer star Zinedine Zidane of France could be in the Valley next month if all goes well. Greater Kashmir has learnt that Al Khuddam Haj and Umrah and Services, a Srinagar-based firm having offices abroad has started lobbying with the former French soccer hero. Al-Khuddam, which is scheduled to host the event is investing its prime Middle-East contacts to convince Zidane for the Kashmir visit.Confirming the news, CEO, Al-Khuddam Sheikh Feroz said: “It was my dream to invite Zizou to Kashmir and I am working on it. I am hopeful he will accept our invite.†Feroz aims to cash Zizou’s visit for the “promotion and revival†of soccer in Kashmir.
“My aim is to restore the lost glory of football in Kashmir and Zizou’s visit will boost the morale of budding footballers. It will also generate interest among football fans of Valley,†Feroz said.
Recently Zizou was in Bangladesh to train the young players.
Zizou journey from the rough back streets of Marseille in France to Madrid has been marked by racism, political controversy and superlative football. Zizou is already popular in Kashmir and a number of parents have named their children after him in the last few years.
Yet another speculation on who the next Zidane will be. So many rumours these days. Why not just ask the man himself to return to competitive football?
Spanish paper “Marca” reports that Real Madrid is tracking Samir Nasri (20). O.Marseille will not sell him easily but Real Madrid want Nasri become the new Zidane and will come up to make an important offer to French club.
There are a lot of major sporting events that are held around the world, games such as the Kentucky Derby, the Rose Bowl, the World Cup, the Thomas Cup Finals and the Wimbledon Final. But do you know that there is another grand final called the Australian Football League Grand Final? The Australian Football League Final is the most attended and largest sporting league final in Australia. This year, the AFL Final is being held in Melbourne. Certainly there will be many people who will be watching the grand final of this major sporting event in Australia and therefore one can book a room in any of the hotels in Melbourne.
Rare early footage of Zinedine Zidane when playing for his first and second clubs in France. There is also a footage of him playing in his first match and scoring his first goal in that very same match.
Nicolas Sarkozy has been pleading for change amongs French athletes. He would have been proud to see the changing face of US soccer (football).
But if Nicolas Sarkozy is looking for any French athlete who might have dared to stray from his jogging track or from the soccer field to ponder the vicissitudes of life, he can be reassured. Except for Pierre de Coubertin, and his contribution came more than a century ago, no other man or woman from France made the Scholar Athlete International Hall of Fame. Pindar and Plato do make the list. Plato comes as a wrestler and Pindar as a somewhat woolly headed chronicler of the Pan Hellenic games. These selections will come as a shock to Sarkozy and his notion of mankind as a giant group of wind up toys.
Never fear. All French athletes are hard at toil and not wasting time taking courses at the Sorbonne or École Nationale d’Administration (Enarque). Sarkozy is proud of the fact that most of his administration are not “Enarque.” You are paid not to think but to do. Jogging is in, walking out. The public veneration of money rather than ideas is being celebrated. And Zinedine Zidane’s leads the way with the disclosure that he earned $18 million last year, more than singer Ronny Halliday, or any other political figure.
