Real Madrid players They have met this Thursday morning in Valdebebas to be sworn in for the Champions League match against Borussia next Wednesday and thus strengthen the position of his coach, Zidane, who is supported by the hard core of the dressing room, with Sergio Ramos, Modric and Marcelo at the helm. Then, all of them posed for the official team photo with the president of the Club, Florentino Pérez.
As this newspaper has learned, it has been Ramos the one who has taken the initiative and has asked his colleagues “a bonus until the end of the year.” “We are one victory away from passing in the Champions League, we depend on ourselves and you have to give everything. This is Real Madrid, gentlemen: together, we have come out of worse, “the captain told his teammates. Modric, who does not lavish himself much, also spoke to remind him that” we have to be united and win the next matches: we can do what”.
Zidane has not been to the meeting, but has been informed of the conclave and its main consequence: it has the full support of the booth, or at least the main group of players. It is already known that others, substitutes like Isco or Mariano, are not as aligned as the others. President, Florentino Pérez, has also been in Valdebebas this morning, but he has done it to pose in the official photo of the squad and has returned to his office after greeting the coach and the players, but without entering into conversation about the locker room meeting.
Zidane was the first to arrive this morning at the Real Madrid facilities in the north of the capital. The French coach crossed the Valdebebas gate at exactly 9:09 hours. Immediately afterwards the rest of the footballers have arrived. The entire squad I was in the booth before ten o'clock in the morning, an hour before the training start time.
