The Real Madrid has lost two of its main references in recent weeks: Zinedine Zidane Y Sergio Bouquets. In addition, the two have been surrounded by a certain controversy and with Florentino Pérez in between. In his interview at The transistor from Zero Wave, the president, who spoke highly of both and opened the door to a possible return, left some details of what it has been for him.
Ramos assured in his last press conference that they made him a renewal offer, but that, when he went to accept it, they told him that it had expired. Florentino, who at no time wanted to conflict with the former white captain, has clarified that he informed him about it from the beginning. “I have adoration for Sergio and I am not going to talk about it. He has been a Real Madrid legend. We have already said everything we had to say on this subject. I am not going to give my version. We offered him a contract, we told him he had a deadline, and he wouldn't admit it. He thought otherwise“he explained.
“I had a hard time. I love Sergio as a son. I brought it in 2005. Of course I'm sorry. Press conference? I've never done one, “he commented on Ramos' farewell act.”He will return, this is his home. It has happened to me with other players. I love him as if he were my son and I wish him well. I am not going to talk here about who is right and who is wrong. There are no nuances, “he concluded.
“I have not read Zidane's letter”
Zidane, once announced that he was leaving his post, wrote a letter published by AS (and later uploaded to his social networks) in which he left doubts regarding his relationship with the president in recent months. For Florentino, that letter was not written by the French. “I have not read it. I swear on my grandchildren. They told me it was bad. He did not write it. That is not Zidane. Someone will have written it to him. My relationship with him? I have the same affection for him as always. It has been a legend of the Madrid “, affirmed.
“I talked to him all afternoon and he never told me what he said later in the letter. It has been a very difficult season. I have not spoken to him again. I don't even know if he is in Madrid. I still have the same affection as always. . If it were up to me, let him be Real Madrid coach again“he said about Zidane. “He is very excited to be France coach”he added.
Finally, he spoke of the press, which he blamed for the fatigue of Zizou. “A coach who does four press conferences a week ends up exhausted. Some questions I did not understand. People have treated Zidane well, and a part of the press. Not another part. If you ask the same thing eight times in a press conference, you end up exhausted, “he concluded.
