What a waste! He’s obviously happy just taking the money! Boils my blood seeing it though, sure his money will keep him happy when his career is finished. He’ll never get those years back, and could have been a world class player who was playing every week at another club! Sad really
He was worldclass in his last year with us and I think his first 2 seasons in Madrid. He won everything with them and wasn't just a passenger, he contributed to their success.
I think he can look back on his time at Real with pride despite the last couple of years, there are players that play a lot longer than him and win nothing and there are players that get horrific injuries and don't even get a career.
He has been treated terribly by Real and their fans, so if he wants to troll them until 2022 I say good on him.
