Top players, but also clubs from home and abroad, provide (almost) daily insight into the ins and outs of the football world via Instagram, X or other internet channels.

As the figurehead of France, Zidane plays a leading role in the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in Paris. Zidane and the French-Moroccan comedian Jamel Debbouze were all set.
