“Vinicius was culé, culé, culé; he cried the day of 6-1 to PSG”

“Vinicius was culé, culé, culé. He cried on the day of the 6-1 against PSG.” Shocking statements by Andre Cury, former head of Barça’s technical secretariat in America, at SER Catalunya’s Què T’hi Jugues. Cury, who revealed that he was about to close his signing for Barça for about 13 or 14 million and that the breakdown of the negotiations cost him the relationship he had with his representatives (“we were betrayed by them”), declared that there are images in which Vinicius demonstrates his barcelonismo: “Barça was always caught in FIFA (…). And he said that the best player in the world was Neymar because he was at Barça. And this I tell him if I have him in front of him because he is a good person and I would not deny it”.

Cury revealed that Rodrygo was also about to close his signing for Barça: “His father (Rodrygo’s) was good people to us. Óscar Grau and Pep Segura were in the Santos president’s office, but we didn’t close it. Barça didn’t want to sign him. And then Madrid went for Rodrygo. I’ll tell one thing. Madrid signed Vinicius without seeing him in a single game. But since he knew that Barça wanted him, Florentino went for him so that Neymar would not happen to him. But one thing happened. As they had not seen him, he was scared when he saw that Barça was going to sign Rodrygo, because he thought that he could be the good one, not Vinicius. And that Neymar could happen to him. That is why he also signed Rodrygo. “
