Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane posted an emotional message to his late brother.
Zidane's brother Farid, 54, died on Saturday following a battle with cancer.
Real Madrid boss Zidane had flown back from his team's pre-season tour in Montreal when he learnt his brother's condition had worsened.
Zidane, 47, posted a message on social media as a goodbye to his elder brother: "My Big soul brother Farid. You always showed me the way. You were Fair Generous Brave, you loved other people so much and other people loved you so much!
"I am so proud of you. Forever in my heart."
The Real Madrid boss posted a photo of himself with Farid as well as one of all the family together and one of Farid by himself with the message.
Real Madrid's squad held a minute's silence during their training camp for Farid and reports state Zidane is expected to return to Canada in the coming days after taking time out to be with his family.
The team are currently working under Zidane's assistant David Bettoni before their upcoming friendlies with Bayern Munich and Arsenal .
Meanwhile, it has emerged Real are ready to keep faith with Dani Ceballos if they cannot sign Paul Pogba.
Zidane is keen on Pogba but has been put off by Manchester United's £180m valuation.
He was ready to let Ceballos go, with Arsenal and Tottenham eyeing a loan move, but is likely to keep the Spain youngster because he feels he cannot get anyone better for that money.
