    SPORTS SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 2014 Perez plays down Photo of the day Ronaldo spat amid surge in Madrid revenues MADRID: Real Madrid president Florentino Perez sought to play down an apparent spat with Cristiano Ronaldo yesterday as he announced the La Liga club’s income had surged above 600 million euros ($778 million) in 2013-14. Perez, who has splashed hundreds of millions of euros of the European cham- pions’ cash on top players in recent years, said the loyalty of Ronaldo, the current World Player of the Year, had been “unquestionable”. The Portugal captain made headlines on Monday when he said the club’s transfer dealings in the latest window would probably have been different if he had been in charge. After winning a record-extending 10th European crown last season, when dressing-room heavyweight Ronaldo was the team’s top scorer, Real sold midfielders Xabi Alonso and Angel Di Maria and brought in Toni Kroos and James Rodriguez. The departure of Alonso to Bayern Munich, in particular, has prompted suggestions the Madrid club will not have enough quality and experience in midfield without him, while Argentine Di Maria is seen as close to Ronaldo. “I have no doubt that he (Ronaldo) did not want to question the club’s policies,” Perez told a news conference announcing 2013-14 income of 603.9 million euros, a 10.9 percent jump compared with the previous season. “He has just presented me with a replica of his ‘Ballon d’Or’ award, an exemplary player,” the construction magnate added. “There are no disagreements, zero.” Real stuttered in their second La Liga outing at the weekend when they let slip a 2-0 lead and crashed to a 4-2 reverse at Real Sociedad.

Th e captain, wearing the world-famous azure blue kit of Italy, received the World Cup and held it triumphantly above his head.

Eleven clubs from Serie B were raided, including Livorno, Bari and Brescia, as well as a further twelve from the lower leagues. Dubbed Calcio Malato (Sick Football), these raids were ordered by prosecutors in Naples to investigate tax evasion and money laundering, which they suspected took place through the transfer of players. Echoing the fi nancial problems of 2001, the Neapolitan magistrates also alleged that clubs had made ‘ systematic ’ billing for non-existent transactions. Further links to past scandals resurfaced when it was revealed that the Guardia were also investigating the agents Alejandro Mazzoni and Alessandro Moggi – the latter being a central fi gure in the calciopoli scandal of 2006.
