He has been linked to almost every team under the sun, the most prominent of which is a return to his old club in Madrid.

But to everybody’s surprise, he has taken a new job outside of the sport.
It was announced that the 50-year-old would be entering into F1 as an ambassador for the Alpine team.
“I’m very happy to be here today and spend a great evening with you,” he said.
“I have seen great things and I am ever so happy to be part of this team, to be part of the Alpine team.
“Why? It’s always a meeting that starts something and I had the opportunity of meeting Laurent and the whole Alpine team for a Grand Prix and I think we had a good exchange.
“We shared everything together and I think Alpine and Laurent had the project to give to young people, to have their opportunities for all the young talent. I was very interested in this project.”
