"The phrases reproduced are pronounced in conversations clandestinely recorded by Mr.

José Antonio Abellán

, who has been trying to sell them for many years without success. It is surprising now that, despite the time that has elapsed, the newspaper El Confidencial collects them today," Pérez said in a statement. broadcast by Real Madrid.

In this sense, he stresses that these are "

single phrases

of conversations taken from the broad context in which they occur."

"Let them reproduce now, after so many years have elapsed since those conversations took place, I understand that it is due to my participation as one of the promoters of the Super League," he assures.

"I have put the matter in the hands of my lawyers, who are studying the

possible actions to take

," concludes the white president, hours after the aforementioned digital newspaper published some audios from 2006 in which he refers to Raúl González and Iker Casillas as "the two great scams" of Real Madrid, being especially hard on the first.

Raúl González and Iker Casillas

Florentino Pérez criticized

Raúl González and Iker Casillas

in 2006

as "the two great scams" of the white club, referring to the former striker, current coach of the Madrid subsidiary, as "a negative uncle who is destroying Madrid" and the exporter, who also works currently for the club, as "a puppet who does not have stature or see well," as published this Tuesday by the digital newspaper El Confidencial.

"Casillas is not a goalkeeper for Real Madrid, he has never been one. It has been the great failure we have had, what happens is that you have those who adore him, love him, talk to him and defend him so much. of the big scams. The second is Raúl. The two biggest Real Madrid scams are first Raúl and second Casillas ", allegedly declared Pérez in September 2006, a few months after leaving the club's presidency and ending his first stage at the in front of it.

Reviewing the so-called 'Galacticos' who played at that time at Real Madrid, Pérez referred to

Zinedine Zidane

as "a magnificent uncle", just like David Beckham, but he was much tougher with Ronaldo Nazario and, above all, Raúl.

"Ronaldo is a jeta, period, eh?

It's a jeta and it's over

. These are all jetas. Raúl is bad, he believes that Madrid is his and uses everything he has developed for his own benefit, he and His representative. The culprit that Madrid is going badly ... Look, I have left for him among other things. Because he, as he considers himself finished, says 'before I am going to finish Madrid'. He is a negative uncle It is destroying Madrid, the morale of the players, so that they say 'it is Madrid that is wrong, not Raúl'. The boy is terrible how bad is and I can't deal with that problem, "he said.

As for the sponsorship contracts, "those who earned the most were Beckham and Ronaldo,

30 million a year between everything

." "Then Zidane, who won 25. And then no one anymore. Because Figo had a watch in his town, the other one I don't know what ... We have looked for all the others. We looked for the Audi one for giving something to Raúl and Figo. Raúl does not sell anything, it is not a media product, "he said.

In addition, the white president criticized, in some audios to which El Confidencial has had access, that "the players are very selfish."

"You can't count on them at all and whoever does count on them is wrong, they leave you lying down, it's silly.

I have a horrible, horrible, horrible concept of players.

Look, I've seen collectives, but I've never seen one. like that of the footballers, "he lamented.

"Lapdog"

Regarding Casillas, and in statements supposedly dated in 2008, Pérez called him "poor man."

"

He doesn't have two front fingers

. I know him perfectly. He's a very short guy. When he gets along better or worse with his girlfriend it shows, he's absent. He's like a little boy. He's a lap dog, like a puppet, a childish thing, "he said.

In this sense, he described as "something frightening" that the then Real Madrid goalkeeper, who a year ago returned to the white club to perform representation functions, "everyone wants."

"But of course, that is given by football. Casillas is neither tall nor able to see well. I told Ginés (Carvajal, the goalkeeper's representative):

'male, take him to the eye doctor, I think he can't see well from afar.'

In the corners, anyway, I say: 'That guy can't see well from afar.' I swear I told him, don't think it's a lie. For his own good and for everything, "he reiterated.
