Zidane allowed to coach Real Madrid Castilla until his appeal is heard

Zinedine Zidane will be allowed to continue coaching Real Madrid Castilla until the appeal against his ban is heard.

Earlier this week the former French international was banned from coaching Madrid's reserve side as he doesn't have the necessary qualifications to do the job required by the Spanish football authorities.

Madrid, however, declared that they would "pursue every legal avenue" to get the ban overturned. 

And on Friday it was revealed the 42-year-old would be permitted to continue his role with Castilla for the immediate future. 

Madrid's second team currently play in Segunda B, after they were relegated from la Segunda last season.
