Italian journalist and publicist Federico Bufa has revealed the real name of the legendary French footballer Zinedine Zidane.

Although thousands of pages have been written about the former coach and footballer of Real Madrid who won everything he could in his playing career, and then led the "royal" club and won three titles in the Champions League, few know his real name.

Buffa reveals that Zidane's real name is Zayed Aldid Al-Yazid.

- One day a child named Zayd Aldid Al-Yazid was born, which means "the beauty of religion". The child had a barber black, oblong face, white skin and icy eyes. He had incredible coordination of movements and with the ball he did whatever he wanted. That child grew into a man who in July 1998 brought France its first world title. But the icy barber over time became known to the whole world by his French name, Zinedine Zidane or Zizu - reveals Buffa.
