FLORENTINO FOLLOWED THE EXAMPLE OF MALDINI 🚨
Sergio Ramos: ′′ The club made me a one-year offer on salary rebate. Money was never a problem. I wanted two years. I wanted peace of mind and continuity for myself and my family ".
′′ In the last few days I wanted to accept Real Madrid's offer of a year, but the club tells me there is no offer anymore ".
The last part of the statement seems very well known to me, will it be that Florentine made a maldini? 🔴⚫️
