Atlético is a part affected by everything that has been known about the Super Cup and conversations between Rubiales and Pique unveiled by The confidential. For example, about the distribution of prizes, where the rojiblanco club benefits much less, like the rest, than Barça and Real Madrid. About that has been asked Enrique Cherry, who has answered in BE SPORTS: “We will try to charge more if we go to the Super Cup next year.”
“What is spoken is what there is and it will be necessary to analyze it well to see exactly what the problem is and where it comes from. We have gone twice to the Super Cup in Arabia, they have offered us some conditions, we have accepted them, and we have not found out what one or the other has won, I imagine it will be a matter of the Federation and each club, “added the president.
Regarding the Federation having business with an active soccer player, Cerezo exposes: “It doesn’t seem ethical to me, but commissions are not prohibited anywhere in the world. If you tell me that some have collected eight million, we will try to collect more if we go next year.”
Rubiales, president of the Federation, made a couple of references to Atlético in his assessment this morning. First, explained that “Miguel Ángel Gil was delighted” with the distribution of prizes, like all clubs “except one”. Also He mentioned Simeone: “If I had read in your situation what has been published, I understand. I admire him a lot”.
The Atlético coach spoke on Tuesday, prior to the match against Granada, about the Super Cup case: “It is clear that, based on the information, there is no doubt that economically, based on what comes out, The FEF would be favored more if Madrid and Barcelona go and before that he will have to explain it better and we would all be calmer”. And he added: “It is convenient that Barcelona and Real Madrid go, it is not very difficult to understand it”.
