When legendary Frenchman Zinedine Zidane took over Real Madrid a year ago, probably even the biggest optimists couldn't dream of such results.
Winning three trophies with only two losses during the entire period.
The ongoing streak of 38 unbeaten matches best describes Zidane's work.
No wonder that club president Florentino Perez, who cautiously viewed the coach's abilities at first, is now rubbing his hands and preparing to double the strategist's salary, which currently stands at around 4 million euros "net".
If this plan comes to fruition, Zidane will climb the ladder of the planet's highest paid coaches to at least the 8th position.
