  • Real Madrid legend Zinedine Zidane is now coach of Real Madrid Castilla
  • Madrid enter a new era in the 2015-16 season under Rafa Benitez
  • Carlo Ancelotti was sacked after a trophyless campaign last season 

Preparations for Real Madrid's new season are well underway but Zinedine Zidane took a moment to enjoy some time with his family on Monday.

The Real Madrid legend uploaded a picture on Instagram of him with two of his sons, and simply wire 'ZZ' as a caption to the image. 

Zidane, 43, is the current coach of Real Madrid Castilla but is expected to eventually step up and become manager of the senior team.

That vacany is currently held by former Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez, who has arrived at the Santiago Bernabeu on a three-year deal.

Madrid endured a trophyless season under Carlo Ancelotti in their last campaign, leading to the Italian's removal as manager. 

And if Benitez does not end the sliverware drought at the club, Zidane could soon be stepping up as boss of the senior team.
