Zidane played alongside several of France’s 1998 World Cup winners, including current France boss Didier Deschamps.


Wenger spent his career playing in the lower leagues in his home country before turning to management.


He has been out of work since leaving Arsenal last summer after a 22-year spell at the north London club.


Wenger ‘promised’ a return to football would happen soon in an interview with talkSPORT, but was coy over the likely destination.











Zidane, the current Real Madrid manager, had a much more glittering playing career with two Serie A titles, one La Liga, one Champions League, World Cup and European Championship titles to his name.


Among the rugby stars in the charity game were Sebastien Chabal, Marc Lievremont and Fabien Pelous.


Some on Twitter could not believe what they were seeing in the picture and has been shared thousands of times.
