Perez said:

"Casillas is not a Real Madrid standard goalkeeper, what can I say? He's not and never has been. He has been a big failure of ours. The problem is people adore him, love him, talk to him, they defend him so much.
"He is one of the biggest frauds and the other is Raul, the two biggest Real Madrid frauds are first Raul and second Casillas.
He further lambasted other team members in the audio clip saying the stars could not be depended on.
"The players are very selfish, you can't count on them for anything. If you do, you've made a mistake and they'll let you down, it's ridiculous. I have an awful view of the players."

Sergio Ramos hits out at Real Madrid

Former Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos has taken a swipe on the Spanish club after completing his transfer to French Ligue 1 side Paris Saint-Germain, Republic World Reports.

The 35-year-old has signed a two-year contract with the French giants and delivered a brilliant response aimed at his former club.

Ramos saw off his contract with the La Liga side last month after spending 16 trophy-laden years at the Spanish capital.

Several clubs have jostled for his signature including Premier League sides Manchester United and Chelsea, but he has officially joined PSG.

Who is Real Madrid’s greatest?

Legit.ng earlier reported that five-time Ballon d’Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo is ahead of legendary Zinedine Zidane in the 50 greatest Real Madrid players of all time as cited in SPORTbible.

Alfredo Di Stefano who played at the club between 1982 and 1984 remains the greatest player to ever feature for Los Blancos, while Cristiano Ronaldo is second on the list.

Making up the top-three is Paco Gento who scored 128 La Liga goals in 428 appearances in his eighteen-year spell between 1953 and 1971.
