Former Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon has suggested that Zinedine Zidane left Real Madrid because Florentino Perez ignored his suggestion. The Frenchman wanted to keep Cristiano Ronaldo and sell Gareth Bale instead but the opposite happened, triggering him to leave.

“Zidane insisted on keeping Cristiano and selling Bale,” he said.

“Instead, Perez did the opposite. Zidane wanted to have decision-making power when it came to signing and selling players, but his suggestions were ignored, so he decided to move on. Zidane made the right decision.”

Meanwhile, Diario Gol suggest the outrageous as they claim that Real Madrid are considering a move for Antoine Griezmann due to his €200 million release clause, which is much less than Spurs’ €350 million asking price for Harry Kane.
