Iker Casillas was trolled by Jose Mourinho prior to King’s League
Saturday night, Real Madrid legend Casillas shocked the football world as he announced a return. The former Spanish keeper is set to play in the King’s League for ‘1K Futbol’. He is also the Chairman of the same franchise.
WHAT THEY SAID:
Former teammates such as David de Gea, Cesc Fabregas, and Jordi Alba provided constructive advice for the Ibai Llanos, a Twitch streamer who has his own franchise named ‘Porcinos FC.’
However, it was a video message from Jose Mourinho, who earlier coached Casillas at Real Madrid. Funnily enough, Mourinho trolled the Spaniard by saying, “If I put him on the bench, it was for a reason. You have a very easy penalty.”
THE BIGGER PICTURE:
The legendary manager had a stiff relationship with Iker Casillas as the Portuguese had dropped him from the starting eleven back in 2012. A peculiar moment to bring up the controversial incident, some might say. However, there seemed to be a humor element in the statement.
WHAT NEXT FOR CASILLAS?
The exciting match-up will be streamed live on the King’s League twitch channel as Porcinos and 1K face off on Sunday.
