Live Bar May 31 News After Zidane's departure, the selection of real Madrid's new manager is still pending. In an interview with the newspaper As, Portuguese football star Figo expressed his views on this topic, while he also talked about the upcoming European Cup and other topics.
About the upcoming European Championships
This year we celebrated the 60th anniversary of the European Championship, which is a special year. Although the format is not used to us, it is already a matter of decision, and we can only draw conclusions after the event is over. It will be a grand event in European football, but in terms of logistics, the requirements of the event will be higher.
About the favourite team to win the European Championship
Winning favourites does not guarantee reaching the final, and experience will help teams that have played many times in the European Cup. Portugal's group is very strong and with France and Germany, these three teams are favourites to win the title. Then, there's the Spanish team. Every tournament there will be some dark horses.
About the UEFA Super League
The UEFA Premier League is long gone, and I think this tournament will hurt the domestic league and the clubs that rely on results to play in this event, and it will also hurt the foundation of unity that European football has built for 70 years.
About the upcoming friendly match between Portugal and Spain
Portugal and Spain are two favourite teams to win the European Championship. After a year of waiting, healthy competition is back and we are all eager to see high-level national team matches. Being able to have fans on the pitch would be very special because the atmosphere would be different.
About Zidane's departure from Real Madrid
I haven't seen Zidane's farewell letter yet, which is a hard time to accept and sad because he left a group he knew very well and had achieved a lot. As a friend, I wish him good luck in the future.
On the possibility of Raul taking charge of Real Madrid
I hope Raúl can play Real Madrid because he is my friend and my brother, but the club will make the final decision. If he's not ready now, Raul is entitled to a chance to coach the team he loves all his life in the future, and he knows that.
On Zidane said the club lacked confidence
I don't know why Zidane left, and it's hard to analyze as a bystander. If he delivers such a message, he feels it.
About the Portuguese national team and Cristiano Ronaldo
Portugal is the best team in European and even world football, and despite being in the group of the dead, Portugal's technical ability is very strong. I pay a lot of attention to Cristiano Ronaldo because he has the DNA to play at a high level and will always score goals. I hope he will be in good physical condition.
On whether kylated Kylian Mbappe or Haaland would like to sign for Real Madrid
I will sign Ronaldo. As for which Ronaldo, if possible I would like to sign both (Cristiano Ronaldo and Ronaldo).
About Enrique
Enrique has done a very good job before, he is a good friend of mine, I hope he can lead the team to good results, I hope he can be happy in the Spanish national team.
