Real Madrid's reaction to PSG's Champions League win: One gesture is worth a thousand words

After pursuing it for a long time, PSG was finally able to win a Champions League as the culmination of their project. It's the triumph of petrodollars, of millions spent without control to sign whoever they wanted. But 14 years later, they have managed to lift the most desired trophy in the world of team soccer.

Many spotlights have been on Real Madrid and on the reaction that Madridists have had about it. They usually congratulate their rivals; in fact, they did so with Barça and the La Liga title. But in the case of PSG and their Champions League, they hadn't done so at first.

From the Madrid club, they hadn't issued a statement or any message on social media. Nothing to congratulate PSG, and they haven't forgotten the problems they've had with the Parisians. It's a gesture in response to how badly they've treated Mbappé for so long.

In fact, right now they still owe him money in a case that's in the hands of the courts. In addition, Al-Khelaïfi's attacks on the Madrid club for signing Kylian haven't been forgotten either. 

However, it was only a matter of time, since this Sunday they've shown the club's values. They wanted to give their "congratulations to PSG and their fans for their well-deserved 2024-2025 Champions League." They've also had a very special message for Luis Enrique, despite the coach's attitude.

"Our most special congratulations to our dear Luis Enrique, with an emotional and loving memory for his daughter Xana," they stated. Despite the Asturian's hatred for the Madrid club, they've replied as they usually do.

Real Madrid has their goal clear after the Champions League final

At Real Madrid, they've paid little attention to this past Saturday's Champions League final. Many players are with their national teams for the upcoming break. Those who have stayed in the Spanish capital are enjoying a few days of rest.

Above all, because on the horizon the goal for this final stretch of the season is already clear. Madridists have set the Club World Cup as their top priority. They want to be the first to lift this title, which also comes with a significant cash prize.

With Xabi Alonso's arrival on the Madrid bench, they hope to be contenders for victory. It won't be easy, since teams like PSG show they're arriving in good form. The accumulated fatigue could be key after a season packed with commitments.
