Celta Vigo president Mourino on losing Bryan Bugarin to Real Madrid: We ask for respect

Celta Vigo president Carlos Mourino has taken aim at Real Madrid over their signing of junior Bryan Bugarin.

Last summer, Bugarin was MVP of the 2021 LaLiga Promises tournament with Celta before he was nicked away by Real Madrid.

Mourino said: "We don't have to hold a grudge against anyone; they are facts of football that happen regularly.

"But it bothers us that there is no deal with the club. We couldn't prevent the boy from leaving the club, but we ask for respect for the work we are doing. We do the same with the Vigo clubs.

"We do not give them money, but we make an agreement to compensate. When that does not happen, we think it is disrespectful. But I will have great pleasure in giving Florentino (Perez, Real Madrid president) a hug and having the board meal."
