Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane is unsure of Pepe's contract situation.

The defender's deal expires in June.

Zidane stated: "He's an important player and whenever he plays he does his job. That's what's important now. The contract is not my business. I'll count on him until the end. There'll be matches he plays in and other when he doesn't. We have eight very good defenders and from time to time we have to leave some out of the match day squad.

"We cannot know what's going to happen in the summer. We are focused on the competition, on the field and nothing else. We'll see what happens in the summer. It's not the important thing at the moment."
