Zidane, who has an excelled track record of delivering success having brought three Champions League titles in succession as well as two La Liga trophies at Santiago Bernabeu, however, is not too concerned.
“It’s what people say, I can’t deny that,” the Frenchman replied when asked if the team were playing for his future during the pre-match press conference ahead of El Clasico.
“But what changes? Nothing. Last year it was the same, in my first spell, it was the same. What I have to do is my job, give 100%, give everything I have.
“I feel the support of everyone, but now we need to change things. We’ve had two complicated games.”
