TAD pardons Zidane

Spain's Administrative Court for Sport (TAD) today [Friday] gave Zinedine Zidane a full pardon.

In doing so, the French coach will be allowed to take his place in the Real Madrid Castilla dugout, fully pardoned, just as Real Madrid had hoped.

Real Madrid presented documentation from the French Football Federation stating that Zidane currently holds a UEFA A coaching badge and is working towards his UEFA Pro licence. TAD did not rule on whether his role was as head or assistant coach, something the Spanish Football Federation had done previously after the Frenchman was reported by Miguel Galán and the League Managers Association.

In addition to lifting Zidane's punishment, Castilla's assistant coach, Santiago Sánchez - who had also been handed a three-month ban - was also pardoned. Real Madrid will now not have to pay the fine that the Spanish Football Federation's (RFEF) judge had handed the club.
