Luis Figo says Zinedine Zidane's goal is to someday become manager of Real Madrid.

Zidane, who was teammates with Figo during his career, is currently managing Real Madrid's B team.

Rafa Benitez has struggled since being named Madrid coach in the wake of Carlo Ancelotti's dismissal at the end of last season.

"I think so, it's one of his goals," Figo told Omnisport. "So if you want to be a coach and he's now coaching the second team ... I think in his head it's the objective and the goal to one day to coach the first team.

"So I don't know. It's always depending on the opportunities -- if they give you the responsibility or not."
