'Mysterious voice' caused Zizou u-turn
Zinedine Zidane has claimed a 'mysterious voice' persuaded him to come out of international retirement and join up with the France team for the remainder of their World Cup qualifying campaign.

The 33-year-old Real Madrid star originally quit international football in July 2004 following France's disappointing European championship campaign.

However, Zidane explained how a curious experience persuaded him to reverse his decision.

'I would not want people to talk too much about it in case what I have to unveil gets badly interpreted, but what is happening to me is quite mystical and gets out of my control,' Zidane said.

'This is even irrational and that's why I am the only person to be able to truly feel it.

'One night, at 3am, I suddenly woke up and I then spoke with someone. But no-one knows it. Neither my wife nor anyone else.

'Until I die I will never tell (who that person was), this is just too crazy. This is someone that you will probably never meet.

'During the hours that followed I was on my own with that person, at home, and I took the decision to come back.

'I had never experienced that before, I felt pushed by this force which dictated my behaviour. It was a revelation for me, I had to obey that voice that was advising me.'

Having reached his decision, Zidane admits his sole aim now is to help Les Bleus qualify for, and play in, next summer's World Cup finals.

France face four decisive matches, against the Faroe Islands, Republic of Ireland, Switzerland and Cyprus, in order to achieve qualification for the event in Germany, after which Zidane admits he may retire from all levels of professional football.

'Do you really think I would be capable of coming for four matches only?' he continued.

'If Les Bleus qualify for the German World Cup, I will take part in my third World Cup. In fact next time I stop my international career I will retire from football fully. My career will end for good.

'I am contracted with Real Madrid until 2007 but my retirement could come earlier.'

Zidane says he's not hearing voices, earlier comments misinterpreted

posted August 10 @ 9:12, EST

PARIS (AP) - Zinedine Zidane wants to make something clear: He's not hearing voices.

The French soccer star said on his website that an interview he gave to France Football magazine was misinterpreted.

In those comments published this week, Zidane explained that he decided to come out of international retirement after a mysterious conversation in the dead of night.

"One night at three in the morning, I suddenly woke up and spoke to someone," Zidane said. "What's happened to me is quite mystical and even escapes me a bit."

But on his website, Zidane said the person speaking to him was his brother.

"I'm clearly speaking about a person, not about religion, nor about something mystical," he said. "I didn't want to say who that person was. But since it was misinterpreted . . . I say that this person was my brother. There is nothing religious, nothing mystical, about it."

The 33-year-old Real Madrid midfielder, who retired from international soccer last summer, announced last week that he would rejoin the national team to help France qualify for the 2006 World Cup.

Zidane, FIFA's world player of the year in 1998, 2000 and 2003, will start his comeback in an Aug. 17 friendly against Ivory Coast and is available for crucial 2006 World Cup qualifiers beginning in September.
