Zinedine Zidane has reacted to the speculations linking Jose Mourinho to his job at Real Madrid as the French tactician insisted that he does not feel pressure going into the clash against Sevilla.

Mourinho is heavily linked with Zidane’s job.But Zidane says: “If I read the press, it says I’m gone. I feel strong. I have learned to never back down and to keep working until the very last moment.

“I’m not thinking about leaving. I’m only thinking of winning tomorrow. You are here to speak and you do it well. The difficulties that they speak of on the outside are something we can’t control.”It doesn’t bother me to hear Mourinho, it is what it is. I don’t have to say if I read it or now, that’s the situation. Here, you lose one game and you have to change everything.”I made the decision to come back because I liked the look of the new project. Now I am here, I will try. We have to be together to achieve our objectives.”
