Agent says Zidane return claims an April’s Fool joke

FORMER France midfielder Zinedine Zidane will not come out of retirement to help the national side, his agent Alain Migliaccio insisted.

Migliaccio was speaking amid reports that the 32-year-old Real Madrid star was set to return to international duty to help France qualify for the 2006 World Cup finals.

“When he (Zidane) makes a decision he sticks to it,” Migliaccio said “For me it’s a great April’s Fool joke.”
