There are several football leagues in the world where some of the best teams compete against each other. The English Premier League has Manchester City, Manchester United, Liverpool, and many more. Similarly, the Serie A has AC Milan, Inter Milan, Napoli, and many more. But which football league is the toughest? Is it the Champions League? Or any other league? Well, former football player and coach Zinedine Zidane believes La Liga is the toughest league.
Zinedine Zidane said,
“It is more difficult to win La Liga than the Champions League!”
For your information, Zidane has competed in La Liga for ten years. Five years as a player and five years as a coach representing Real Madrid. In those ten seasons, he could only lift the title three times. As a player, he won the title in 2002–03, and as a coach, he won the title twice (2016-17 and 2019-20).
