The former Barcelona player who accuses Real Madrid of stealing games

Arturo Vidal was once one of the most highly sought-after midfielders in Europe. The player has worn the jerseys of top clubs like Juventus, Bayern Munich, Inter Milan, and, of course, Barcelona. He is also a part of the so-called "golden generation" of Chilean soccer, which clinched back-to-back Copa America titles in 2015 and 2016, respectively.

It's worth noting that during his time at Barcelona, Vidal embraced the values of the club and everything that fans and players passing through should know. It's well known that in Spain, the Catalonia fanbase can be unforgiving when it comes to those who have ever disappointed them. Although this is not the case with Arturo Vidal, there have been players whose idols turned into enemies, as in the case of Luis Figo when he signed with Real Madrid.

The rivalry doesn't just exist at the sporting level but also at the social level, and the 36-year-old player is well aware of this. Moreover, this rivalry transcends soccer and extends into the very fabric of Spanish culture. Matches between these two giants of the sport are watched by millions around the world, and the debates and discussions among fans continue long after the final whistle.

With that said, the current Atletico Paranaense player made some statements on his Twitch channel that have irked more than one Real Madrid fan.

King Arturo's Message to Real Madrid

In Vidal's own words, he referred to the white team in the following manner: "Sometimes I'm not sure in which specific game a controversy happened against Real Madrid... I've experienced so many injustices against Real Madrid in my career that I sometimes forget details. They robbed my teams so many times." he stated. He also said his preference between Casemiro and Sergio Busquets, saying: "Casemiro or Busquets? Busquets, without a doubt. In all teams, the holding midfielder is the one who controls the rhythm, who has more technique, who moves the ball... Casemiro doesn't do any of that, that's why I prefer Busquets." Finally, it seems that for Arturo Vidal, the rivalry has extended beyond the soccer level.
