Ex-RMCF pres. Ramon Calderon on the transfer ban: "I think FIFA should be more flexible with the interpretation of the rule."

-"We take care of them given an opportunity, so maybe there are some cases where Madrid has broken the rules but I think FIFA should manage this matter with more flexibility."

-"Almost all the children come here to fulfil a dream, to forget a difficult situation. And here, they can have a hope."

-"Zidane knows the workings in a changing room with a lot of stars. All of them have worked with him & he has their respect."

-"During my nine years in Real Madrid, the club has given everything to them in terms of their sport and personal education."

-"Zidane doesn't have any experience, just training a year-and-a-half in a third division team."

"Zidane was a great player which gives him a huge advantage to know how to manage these kinds of players..."
