Lionel Messi: “I don’t know if I’ll be at the 2026 World Cup”.
The traditional Christmas lunch of Real Madrid took place last Thursday in the presence of the soccer and basketball teams in the basketball pavilion of Valdebebas due to the works at the Bernabeu. An occasion in which the president of the White House took the opportunity to congratulate his players for what they achieved last season, including the 14th Champions League which is a little special for fans as for Florentino Pérez.
Indeed, Florentino Pérez addressed once again to his athletes during a private lunch organized by the club. Due to the works at the Bernabeu, it was held in the basketball pavilion of the Ciudad Real Madrid, and not in the stadium box, as was customary before the pandemic. And at this meeting, the president of the White House expressed all his pride.
“I want you to know that we are very proud of what you did last season. Here are all the titles obtained. The fourteenth European Cup and the other titles won in soccer and also in basketball will remain engraved in the memory of all madridistas, but also of all fans around the world, because we are living one of the great cycles of victories in our history, “said Florentino Pérez.
“I want to wish you that this year 2023 that we have just begun is a great year for each of you, and for your families. May we be healthy, may injuries be kind to you and may we continue to share many successes together. I always say that being part of Real Madrid is a privilege, but it is also a huge responsibility, “added the president.
But he did not finish without making a specific nod to the women’s team: “We are starting the path for our women’s team to continue growing. At only three years old, you have managed to play in the Champions League in the last two seasons. And our fans and all of us are also very proud of you.
