Biography

Zidane started his career at Sebha club Sharrara, and performed well for the club during the 2003-04 season, scoring 8 goals despite Sharrara being relegated in the Relegation Play-Off.

Zidane's exploits earned him a move to Sweahly in July 2004. However, he suffered a barren spell at the club, and returned to Sharrara in January 2005. In the 2005-06 season, he scored 7 goals to help keep the club up. He scored 3 goals the following season, prior to Sharrara being kicked out of the league.

Hence he moved to Akhdar in February 2007. He scored 2 goals on his debut against Olomby, and scored a further two.

He had his most fruitful season in 2007-08, scoring 21 goals in the league, and a further two in the Confederation Cup.

He got into double figures in the 2008-09 season, but failed to reach the heady heights of the previous season, scoring just 10 in the league, and 1 in the Libyan Cup win over Ahly Benghazi.
