5 Real Madrid legends who were booed at the Bernabeu

Ronaldo taunts booing Real Madrid fans

#3 Raul

Los Blancos fans even turned on Raul

While he was not quite a Galactico in the true sense, Raul was a crucial part of the early Galacticos era that became famous for their star status in the first half of the 2000s. Signed from rivals Atletico Madrid, Raul debuted for the club when he was just 17 and settled into a side that gradually welcomed the likes of Luis Figo, Ronaldo, David Beckham and Zinedine Zidane.

He won three Champions League trophies with the Meringues in 1998, 2000 and 2002 and became synonymous with the tournament itself. He was the club’s highest scorer with 323 goals until Cristiano Ronaldo arrived on the scene, however, none of this deterred a large section of Madrid fans from booing him at the Bernabeu.

The Spanish forward was destined to end his career in the capital but the downfall of the Galacticos proved to be his death knell. Fans began to see him as part of the problem that was plaguing the club and they did not hold back. Recently, Madrid fans were furious with the club legend on Twitter when he congratulated Messi for equalling his record of scoring against 35 different clubs in the La Liga.
