It ends the flirtation Ribéry

Manu already suggested several days ago that Franck Ribéry, French midfielder, he promoted himself to be signed with Real Madrid. It appears that the flirtation is over. Jorge Valdano assumes settled the matter, and declares that the French will not come to the Bernabeu. "At least not this season," said Valdano.

Also, this morning Ribéry denied his departure from Bayern Munich. Speculation had been shot with the mysterious absence from French to training last Friday, allegedly because of a blister. It seemed a matter of time that Florentino take out the checkbook and will claim another star. Zinedine Zidane is not for nothing had wished that his countryman play with the meringues.

Ribery strikes me as a great player who starts the Bundesliga was too long, and might be a good addition to any big team in Europe. However, and despite his express wish, the Bavarian club has become difficult. What I find reprehensible is that Ribery has armed both tantrum to get out, and at the last minute claiming that his statements were misinterpreted. No way, Scarface, you said it: "Real Madrid or nothing". And you were left with nothing.
