Roberto Carlos Reveals if He Would Sign Anyone from Barça for Real Madrid: 'He Doesn't Play'

Roberto Carlos talks about FC Barcelona's squad and reveals if he would sign anyone from Hansi Flick's team

Roberto Carlos has been on 'El Cafelito' with Josep Pedrerol. The Brazilian granted an interview to the director of Chiringuito de Jugones and spoke at length about various current topics.

One issue that came up during the conversation was Barça's situation. For this reason, the Catalan journalist asked the former Madrid player if he would sign any footballer from the culé team for Ancelotti's squad.

Roberto Carlos, always faithful to his great humor and sarcastic tone, assured that he wouldn't have minded Messi. However, from Flick's current team, he didn't want to give names, although he highlights that he respects them greatly, as there are great footballers.

This way, it's evident that he didn't want to 'get involved' in that matter. However, this is the line that Real Madrid's sports management follows, as they are clear that Ancelotti's squad is better. It's true that Lamine Yamal is standing out, but perhaps he wouldn't have a place in a trident formed by Mbappé, Rodrygo, and Vinicius.

It's clear that they are two great teams and that they are filled with many individual talents. Proof of this is the equality in the national league championship, which seems to be decided in the final days. Even more so considering that there is a Clásico on matchday 35.

Thus, we'll have to see what ends up happening in this final stretch of the season. The feelings aren't entirely good in the merengue team, but Madrid has already shown that it is above any kind of logic. Florentino and his closest people trust this group of footballers who usually rise to the occasion when it matters.

The Decisive Stretch

What's important, beyond what Roberto Carlos says, is that the decisive stretch of the season has already arrived. It's now when every match counts and any 'slip-up' can be costly. The key will be to see which team, between Real Madrid and Barcelona, manages this final stage of the campaign better.
