The fact they’re being reported as skint and are in a heap of debt - compared to clubs who have an almost limitless pot of money to tap into and can skirt the rules because of their state backed ownership - are a bit different.

Dont believe everything Real put out. They're nowhere near in as bad a shape as Barcelona are.

Buying Mbappe is Perez giving PSG a massive slap down. PSG were giving it large if you like after getting Messi. This is Perez pipping them down. They could've waited a year and got him for free.

Has the Spanish state bailed them out? Does it even own them? You probably know more than me.

If they sign Mbappe they have done.

They’ve done what? Own them or bailed them out?

So I guess if/when Voldemort gets charged then the media will be able to name him and we'll be able to discuss it but not the trial ?

I don't get these laws of yours at all. I get the principle but it feels like it wouldn't really work in practice.

Very vague answer.

The British legal system? It’s the basis of your legal system and probably a bit more egalitarian in practice.

Get more riled up about a nothing comment. Our legal system is crap by the way so good try acting all loud and proud but you gave us a crock of absolute crap.

Not riled up or loud and proud. Just pointing something out.

I think the Spanish state gave Real Madrid a lot of support during the civil war era and the 2008 financial crisis.

Initially Atletico were the team favoured by Franco, as they were the team of the air force, know as Atletico Aviacion at the time

But due to Reals succses in Europe in the 50s and 60s France started to favour them

So Real arent good because of Franco, rather Franco liked them because they were good
