Ex-Barcelona president Gaspart: Figo a coward and traitor

Former Barcelona president Joan Gaspart has launched a furious attack on Luis Figo and Neymar.

It's clear that there is still bad blood between the club and Figo after his defection to Real Madrid.

"Neymar's possible move to Madrid is not comparable with Figo," Gaspart said to Radio MARCA.

"Figo left with treachery and with no time to renew the team, and he was a coward who betrayed us.

"Neymar went for money, full stop."
