Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is ready to stick with Zinedine Zidane next season.
Zidane's deal runs to the end of this season.
"Florentino made the decision some weeks ago and qualifying for the Champions League final has had no influence on the decision," a source told AS.
Sources at Madrid have claimed that Pérez is "very happy" with the Zidane's day-to-day work and the "excellent atmosphere" the former player has been instrumental in generating within the Madrid dressing room following Benítez's dismissal.
