Paying £80 Million For Cristiano Ronaldo Was Idiotic – Former Real Madrid President Lorenzo Sanz
Sanz thinks no player is worth £80 million...
Former Real Madrid president Lorenzo Sanz has publicly criticised current supremo Florentino Perez, branding the person responsible for paying Manchester United £80 million for Cristiano Ronaldo, “an idiot".
The former club president, who guided Real Madrid to two Champions League titles in 1998 and 2000 is quoted by Goal.com Spain as saying, “Either we are all fools or whoever paid that for Cristiano is an idiot. No player in the world is worth it."
“We are talking about the best players in the world,” he continued. “The best stadium in the world, this and that, because of everything that is expected with Real Madrid. That, for Cristiano Ronaldo, should be hard to take.”
Sanz went on to claim that his “ former team was equal to or better than this one," and that he didn’t have to pay enormous transfer fees for his star signings.
In a final jibe at the current squad, Sanz continued that his former “team was better, player for player and I would not change it for the current [squad], which unfortunately is worse than Barcelona." -

United made a good deal actually. And it's true that no matter how much money Real pump in, they'll still be worse than Barcelona.
