Who surprised you the most?: “I’ve been lucky enough to play for Madrid and I’ve seen the best. That is why I say that for me this season (the last one) was the best, because I learned a lot as a human being”.

You have to tell your son, ‘No, it’s just that the coach doesn’t count on me, but why?’ There are a lot of things. I say that it is really horrible, very difficult to be the captain of the team and be on the bench and watch your team mates play and you don’t play, but you have to train the next day. I am not saying that we have won because of my character. We are talking about a player who has been in the FIFA XI in The Best for 17 years in a row”.Ĭontribution to Madrid: “I believe, I can’t tell you one hundred percent, but I believe that my way of being, my joy, contributed a lot to the team. He has always given the maximum to his teams. It is clear that he no longer has the speed he had before, but he can play in any team in the world, without any doubt.

Importance of Cristiano Ronaldo: “When we start playing football, we know it’s not forever. I was very calm, very happy, as if to say, ‘Look, that’s it, it’s over and a new chapter has begun’”. They said, ‘Marcelo, stay’, but I already knew. And people already knew that I wasn’t going to stay. Leaving Real Madrid through the front door - that people respect you, not for winning trophies, but for what you have given to the club through hard work, commitment, respect. The satisfaction of having fulfilled everything you set out to do. The fans screaming, begging you to stay - these are moments that no money in the world can buy. Let’s see if he manages to make it to the first team. At no time before that did I think this was it. In other words, I think that it was then that I realized, at that moment, that my time at Real Madrid had ended. And, in the end, a title like this, the last one for me, I think it was the most special, the last one”.įeeling after winning the 14th European crown: “I sat on my haunches, started thinking, crying, telling myself, ‘It can’t be true’. No, we know that it is very, very difficult to win the Champions League. Since we have won five, it might seem that it is an easy thing to do, like saying, ‘Hey, next year we’ll win it again’. And I think that it has come in the best possible way, right? Saying goodbye to Real Madrid with a Champions League title. And you know, I’ve talked about this before, I knew it was the last one. And then the last one, which for me was where I felt most important. That’s an important part of my story, my life. I was now able to say, ‘I have won a trophy with Real Madrid’. But the first title I won with Madrid was spectacular because I really felt like a footballer. I think that any trophy, when you win, the feeling of having worked all season to win a title is like, ‘Ufff’. I needed help when I first arrived when I was 18 years old, so something along those lines”.įull screen Luka Modric and Marcelo celebrate with the Champions League trophy after being Liverpool in Paris. Only if I can help Real Madrid in some way. I don’t see myself going back just to be there. So there are many ways in which I could help Madrid. Yes, I do see myself coming back, but I don’t know in what capacity exactly because Madrid is just so big. But I would very much like to return to Real Madrid and be there to try to help the young kids who need it. Possible return? “Sure, but I don’t know and I don’t want to think about what I’m going to do or what I’m not going to do right now. And apart from that, it is impossible to say, ‘I have left Madrid’. Part of me that is there, which is my son, who is growing up.

How do I leave Real Madrid? It stays with you. Leaving Real Madrid: “If I’m honest, I didn’t leave Real Madrid. Qnf2SoL6XC- Fabrizio Romano February 19, 2023
