Real Madrid sell Zinedine Zidane's son, midfielder Enzo, to Alaves

Real Madrid have sold midfielder Enzo Zidane, the son of manager Zinedine Zidane, to Alaves.

The deal was announced on Thursday as the younger Zidane signed a three-year contract with the club that finished ninth in La Liga last season.

The 22-year-old had come up through the Madrid academy and scored in his lone appearance with the senior team in November in a 6-1 Copa del Rey win over third-tier Cultural Leonesa.

He appeared in 78 games for Madrid's Castilla reserve team, scoring seven goals with 15 assists.

Enzo Zidane is the oldest of the Real Madrid boss' four children.

A statement on Alaves' official website added: "Deportivo Alaves wants to welcome Enzo Zidane and wishes him the best of luck for the new season."
