Real Madrid youth coach Guti: I want Zidane's job

Real Madrid youth coach Guti admits the first team job is in his sights.

He retired from football in 2011, one season after leaving the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu, and since 2013 he has been back coaching at his boyhood club, with lofty ambitions.

"As Real Madrid fans, we want [Zinedine] Zidane to continue [as coach of the first team] for many years," he told El Transistor.

"I will continue to do so as well.

"I aspire to the maximum and it would be very stupid to say that it is not a target of mine to coach the first team.

"But, at present, it is still a long way down the line."
