🚨Sergio Ramos on Real Madrid accusing Barcelona of paying the former vice-president of referees (Negreira): 🗣️Reporter: You spent many years at Real Madrid, captained the club and experienced the rivalry with Barcelona firsthand. What do you make of the accusations against Barcelona? 🎙️Sergio Ramos: Listen, I spent some of the best years of my career at Real Madrid. I captained that club, defended that badge and understand what this rivalry means. But that doesn’t mean I have to agree with everything my former club says. Personally, I don’t believe Barcelona were winning those years because they were paying referees. I played against that Barcelona. I know exactly what we were facing. Messi, Iniesta and Xavi were not ordinary footballers. They were world-class players who could make the best teams in Europe look helpless. Sometimes, you simply have to accept that another team was better than you. I remember those Clásicos. You could prepare all week, study their movements and come up with the perfect tactical plan, but once those players started moving the ball, you could spend 90 minutes chasing shadows. That wasn’t something money could buy. That was football at its highest level. What makes me uncomfortable is the timing of everything. Barcelona are beginning to build another frightening team, gathering world beaters again, and suddenly these accusations are being dragged back into the spotlight. We saw something similar during their greatest era. They had Messi, Iniesta and Xavi, and nobody could get near them consistently. Now they are building another generation capable of dominating football, and the same controversy is becoming a major talking point again. I’m not saying every question surrounding Negreira should be ignored. If there is evidence, investigate it properly. Nobody should be above the law. But don’t automatically discredit an entire generation of footballers because of allegations against the institution. And let me be honest, I don’t think Barcelona need anybody’s help to produce great footballers. Their history speaks for itself. They have an identity, an academy and a philosophy that has produced extraordinary players for decades. I know what it felt like to face that Barcelona. Believe me, you didn’t need a referee to explain why they were beating you. They were simply that good.
