Blatter believes Ronaldo is being treated like a slave. How ridiculous is that? If he is a slave, sign me up: Fortune, fame, beautiful women, and the chance to play football!
Blatter has once again opened his mouth with out thinking. Here is what the FIFA president had to say.
“The important thing is, we should also protect the player,” Blatter told Sky News.
Protect the player? Players need to respect contracts! They are grown men and they signed the contract, live with your decision!
“If the player wants to play somewhere else, then a solution should be found because if he stays in a club where he does not feel comfortable to play then it’s not good for the player and for the club.
“I’m always in favor of protecting the player and if the player, he wants to leave, let him leave.”
“I think in football there’s too much modern slavery in transferring players or buying players here and there, and putting them somewhere,”
“We are trying now to intervene in such cases. The reaction to the Bosman law is to make long-lasting contacts in order to keep the players and then if he wants to leave, then there is only one solution, he has to pay his contract.”
People in his position need to understand that its best to not voice their opinions on certain matters.
