Zinedine Yazid Zidane (Arabic: زÙ٠اÙدÙ٠زÙداÙ, Transliteration: Zin a-Din Zidan) (born June 23, 1972, in Marseille, France), nicknamed Zizou, is a French football player of Algerian Berber descent on his Fathers side and French on his Mothers side, who used to play for Real Madrid and will end his career after playing for the French national team in the 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany. Zidane is often considered to be the best footballer of his generation, and one of the greatest footballers of all time. An elegant dribbler of the ball, his passing ability and perfect balance have made him one of the game's finest artists and the natural successor of France's Michel Platini.
On 25 April 2006, Zidane officially announced his decision to retire from both club and international football after the 2006 FIFA World Cup.

Zinedine Zidane’s career began in the backstreets of Marseilles where, at the age of 14, this son of Algerian immigrants was spotted by a talent scout and offered a place at the academy of AS Cannes.

I believe he was born in France to Morrocan parents.
BTW, there are such things as Arab Christians and Jews who use many of the same names as muslims.
