Madrid strategist Jose Mourinho wants Zinedine Zidane to play a bigger role in working with the team.

The Frenchman, who was named the world's best footballer three times, is currently a special adviser to club president Florentino Perez.

"I would like Zinedine to spend more time with me, rather than the president," said the Portuguese.

And he added: "I don't think he wants to become a coach, but still I would like to see him by my side more often."
