UEFA President Aleksander Ceferin allegedly called Real Madrid president Florentino Perez “racist”, according to text messages sent by the Slovenian to former RFEF president Luis Rubiales.
In a recent article, The Objective revealed details of discussions between Rubiales, Ceferin and Barcelona players Gerard Piqué and Lionel Messi to set up a fund diverting money from television rights to Spanish players who were due to suffer salary cuts due to the pandemic in 2020. The fund reportedly amounted to €30 million, although El Espanol claims Messi wanted the solidarity fund to go to the lowest-earning players first, saying “ I prefer not to take money” if not all were compensated. So far, it appears that no such fund has been created.
Further correspondence between Ceferin and Rubiales has come to light, dating back to a year before the so-called solidarity fund, when Ceferin and Perez were clashing over Perez’s proposed Superleague plans. Earlier in the day, Ceferin called Perez selfish in comments to the media.
Ceferin insults Perez
“ I will speak with Florentino because here in Spain, if I have Tebas and Florentino against me, (it will be) impossible for me. Let’s think about the best thing to do. He is a very proud man. I think we can try to talk and calm everyone down, but I will 100% continue with you. Don’t worry about this. “, Luis Rubiales would have said according to this source.
Ceferin would have replied: “I’m proud too, don’t forget. I don’t want to talk to him. I would only do it because of you. He’s an idiot and a racist! Don’t calm things down for me, I don’t need it. I just want you to be strong. »
