Cassano talks about Florentino: “He is the Pope, the king and the cardinal”

Antonio Cassano has never minced the tongue. Neither in the mixed zone or the press conferences as a player, nor as a collaborator already retired on the sets. Now, and it does not surprise anyone, it does not have it on the new platforms either.

This Thursday, Cassano was with Vieri, a former Atlético, Juve or Inter among many others, on his Twitch channel to talk about football news but also about what they did during their careers. 'Fantantonio' ​​spoke about Real Madrid and more specifically about its president, Florentino Pérez. “Real Madrid is different from all the others. At this moment, Florentino is the Pope, the king and the cardinal,” he assured.

The Bari forward highlighted the figure of Real Madrid's top president and recalled a joke by Ibrahimovic about the Ballon d'Or. “If he decides to offer you one and you have an agreement with another team that offers you three, he will decide if you stay. Look, Modric was going to leave, he stayed and won the Ballon d'Or. Cannavaro, the same. That year he had played well with Juve but they could have given it to Buffon or Zidane if it were not for the World Cup header. Ibra a couple of years ago made a joke about the Ballon d'Or and said that he always won (In 2018, Ibra said: “It was Florentino Pérez who competed for the Ballon d'Or with Messi, not Cristiano Ronaldo”).

Theo and Milan-Juventus

Cassano did not cut himself on the confrontation between Milan and Juventus, showing the difference in squads as a differential factor for the bianconeri to take the victory. “Juve had important casualties but they have 25 great players. All of the highest level. In the end, they win the game thanks to Kulusevski and McKennie having Ronaldo on a bad day. Dybala and Chiesa were unstoppable and destroyed Theo Hernández,” he said.
