Zidane leaves Real Madrid training camp due to personal reasons

Zinedine Zidane has left Real Madrid's training camp in Montreal due to personal reasons.

The club confirmed in a short statement that head coach Zidane will be absent for an unspecified period of the trip.

"Our manager Zinedine Zidane will be absent from pre-season training camp because of personal reasons," the statement released on Friday said.

"Until his return, the sessions will be led by the second coach, David Bettoni."

Friday was Madrid's third day of training in Canada ahead of their pre-season opener against Bayern Munich in Houston, Texas on July 20 in the International Champions Cup.
