LLaureus Academy member Huis Figo sat down with MARCA to reflect on a football season that is already nearing its end, but which, in Real Madrid’s words, was by no means a good season. “The reality is it’s a bad season. For Madrid, it’s always a negative season if you don’t win. If you miss out on the title it’s because things aren’t going well,” he explained.
My favorites in the Champions League are PSG and Bayern, these two teams are very strong
One of the most important moments of the season was the coaching change. “I don’t think he had time. We didn’t even have time to analyze the months he was here. It’s very complicated,” he reflected on the Tolosa-born manager’s move from Xavi to Arbeloa after just a few months of service.
champions league favorites
The squad for the Champions League semi-finals has already been decided, and the former footballer has declared his favorite two teams: “Based on the results so far, my favorites are PSG and Bayern. They are two very strong teams. I like the way they play football, but anything can happen. We are in the best moment of the Champions League and the teams there deserve it.”
Portugal are not among the favorites due to their history, but they are also not among the favorites due to their high quality.
world cup year
This year, all eyes are on the World Cup, which will be held in the United States, Mexico and Canada, with Portugal once again participating in the tournament. “The fact that we are in the World Cup is an opportunity for all teams. Portugal are not at the forefront of the favorites because of their history, but they are at the front of the favorites because of their quality. France, Spain, Brazil, who have a lot of options, there is also Argentina, although they are not favorites this year. England also have a good team…among them the most favorites to win,” he explained.
Ramin is incredibly talented
Among the up-and-coming players who have already become reality, Coach Figo praised Lamine Yamal’s qualities, saying, “He is unbelievable.He has great talent.I hope he continues to grow as a player and has a great career.”
