Zidane to be given £200m to spend at Chelsea

The Frenchman is understood to not be put off by the club’s transfer ban

Zinedine Zidane will be given £200 million ($261m) to spend at Chelsea should he be named manager, The Sun reports.

Though Chelsea were hit with a two-window transfer ban on Friday, they are set to appeal and should be free to spend in the summer if that is the case.

Despite the ban, Zidane is still understood to be keen on the Stamford Bridge job, with Maurizio Sarri on the brink of the sack.
