“I don’t know how this was allowed to happen and clearly it is causing some embarrassment for a number of reasons. The figures are quite different to what Real Madrid were claiming since the transfer in 2013 and we cannot say why they would fabricate these numbers.
“Cristiano knows he is the best; he is the biggest name at Real Madrid. I cannot imagine he needs the club to pretend they paid less to sign Bale because they are worried about how it will affect his mood. The club and the president can only explain why the figure they spoke about was less than the actual amount. More importantly, how did this document get into the newspaper? This is terrible and should never happen.”

Ramon Calderon also gave his opinion on the appointment of Zidane.
“Always at Real Madrid you have to win trophies. Look at the history of our club over the last few decades and only one man has remained in charged for more than three seasons. This was Vincente Del Bosque, who was the best coach. Real Madrid is based on success and we don’t wait for it.
Ancelotti did not win a trophy last season, but clearly the players wanted him to stay. This shows they were happy with him and maybe there was no reason to replace him with Benitez. Now we can see it did not work out, but this was not a big surprise. Maybe Ancelotti could have stayed.”
