Real Madrid defender Nacho insists the players expect coach Zinedine Zidane to stay next season.

After victory at Athletic Bilbao, Zidane denied reports he had informed his players that he would be stepping down at the end of the campaign.

And Sunday's matchwinner Nacho stated: "In football one moment you are up and the other down. We do what this shield asks, until the last minute.

"The coach has a contract and is excited, it is his decision and that of the club.

"But we want him to stay."
