Despite Barcelona’s stormy crîsis, an uƞexpected messąge from Barcelona Vice President to Real Madrid President Florentino Perez

close >

The Spanish newspaper, Marca, loyal to Real Madrid, published an emotional message sent by Gabriel Masforol, the former vice president of Barcelona, ​​to his son, “Alex,” who died 15 years ago.

The strange thing in this letter is that despite the fact that Gabriel Masforol and his family belonged to Barcelona, ​​​​he decided this time to explain to his deceased son the skill and intelligence of Florentino Perez, the head of the traditional rivals Real Madrid, and even thanked him for saving Barca as well.

Masforol means that Perez saves Barcelona by the war he is waging with Joan Laporta against the Spanish League led by Javier Tebas over the American Fund (CVV) deal, which would have monopolized 10% of the club’s revenues from broadcasting rights for 40 years in exchange for a sum of money.

Real Madrid also entered into another war with the European Football Association (UEFA) because of the European Super League project, and formed a strong union with Barcelona and Juventus to implement this project and take football to another level in the future.

For all these reasons, the former Barcelona vice president believes that Florentino Perez is the lifeline for the Catalan club in light of the difficulties it faces at the sporting and economic levels, and he expressed this with emotional words directed to his child, who was suffering from Down syndrome and died at the age of 3 years.

The text of Masforol’s message to his son read: “Dear Alex, for 15 years I have been writing to you about what is happening in our sports environment, especially in the world of football, and of course about our beloved Barcelona. I will surprise you today because your brother Gabi and I have been for many years and have a love affair with Florentino Perez, the president of the rival club Real Madrid par excellence, you know my dear that we have many friends in this club like Raul Gonzalez, Butragueño, Luis Figo, Vicente del Bosque and many more.” .

“It means that although I always wanted to beat Real Madrid, this friendship that we have with them softens the competition in every way. And this letter that your brother has been insisting on writing for months is straightforward, because this week Gabe and I were with Florentino Pérez again, he surprised us by adding to us his affection, his common sense, his intelligence and his vision. What football should be, in terms of the club and everything that surrounds it.”

“We are no longer in the 20th century, football is a strong industry now. And the management of very relevant clubs, institutions or companies can only be done by volunteerism and passion. Florentino Perez had to live with the best Barcelona in history, yet he won five Champions League titles. Look son, he took advantage of the pandemic to build a new stadium without any damage or inconvenience to his fans. He did not spend on contracts and succeeded in making money, and he sold well, and despite that, he achieved positive and brutal results, which must be hated.”

He continued, “I am happy for him, and he has our admiration and appreciation, so these are my words to Alex. I am aware that he has enemies and people who do not like him, but in this life, now more than ever, envy has no limits if you succeed unfortunately.”

Gabriel Masforol ended his message to his son, “Today I will not talk about Barcelona because it is boring. We even have to thank Florentino Perez for saving us, and it’s true that without Barcelona Real Madrid’s value would go down, and vice versa. I know that this message will not satisfy some, but we are addressed to you. Dear Alex.
