Gourcuff was particularly delighted to be mentioned alonside the French legend, who he grew up watching.

"It is an honour to be compared to Zidane and Kaka," Gourcuff told RMC.

"But I feel that I am closer to Zidane because my main quality is technical.

"Kaka is much quicker than me, even if people say I look like him.

"I consider Zidane as an example, despite his last act in the World Cup final.

"I have met him a couple of times, but we never talked because I am too shy."
