Meet French football icon Zinedine Zidane’s son Luca, who played for Algeria at the Fifa World Cup 2026

The 28-year-old goalkeeper made his debut for Real Madrid when Zizou was the manager; he now plays for Granada CF in La Liga 2
French football legend Zinedine Zidane has fans going crazy after news broke that he has agreed to join the France national team as head coach. Sports newspaper L’Équipe reported that the 1998 Fifa World Cup winner will officially take the reins on September 1, with others reporting that his contract with Les Bleus runs till mid-2030.
While Zizou is about to become France’s new coach, his son Luca Zidane, in contrast, stepped away from French football last September to join Algeria. He represented the North African nation at this World Cup, serving as the team’s starting goalkeeper despite a recent chin and jaw injury.
