Jorge Valdano spoke to Radio MARCA about his latest book, 'Los 11 poderes del líder' ('The 11 Powers of a Leader'). The former Real Madrid General Director also talked about current issues at his old club.
"Football has been very generous financially to Real Madrid. The football side has been solid and perhaps now is the time for the financial side to give way and allow the playing side to be the most prominent aspect", he said.
Valdano believes the club has been in need of a more unified football strategy for some time: "Madrid has needed a solid football strategy for some time. Something that is fixed and engraved in the club".
The Argentine believes Messi is "a natural genius" and in reference to Bale's price-tag, he added: "Cristiano and Messi are worth much more than €100 million. Bale has got time to prove himself and Madrid is the best place to do so".
There is no place for Mourinho in Valdano's books, but the latter does give his view on the manager's profile: "Excessive power at such big clubs causes individual dependence and when this person goes there is a great feeling of emptiness". Valdano concluded by saying that the Real Madrid team "has to change accordingly".
