Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema stay not guaranteed, says Real boss Zidane

The Real Madrid careers of Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema and Gareth Bale have been thrown in doubt as manager Zinedine Zidane says ‘anything can happen’ between now and the end of the transfer window.

According to Sky Sports, the Frenchman hopes that the trio – known as BBC – do stay at the Bernabeu, but he also acknowledged that the transfer window can through in some obstacles along the way.

Speaking his sides’ 4-1 defeat to Manchester City in the pre-season tour in America, the Real boss said, "I hope the BBC stay for this season. I hope everyone remains. I want everyone who is here now to stay...but anything can happen right up until August 31."

The former-world cup winner was also asked about his interest in Monaco teenage sensation, to which he replied, "I'm the coach, you need to speak with someone else about whether or not it is worth it," said Zidane. "Nothing has happened till now, we have the squad we have."
