Saul Niguez: Real Madrid Has 'No Fans' Compared to Flamengo
16 Dec
Summary
- Saul Niguez claims Real Madrid's fanbase is insignificant compared to Flamengo's.
- The midfielder recently moved to Brazil to play for Flamengo.
- He previously spent over a decade with Atletico Madrid.

Saul Niguez, a prominent figure from Atletico Madrid's history, has controversially declared that Real Madrid has "no fans" when measured against the immense support of his current club, Flamengo. The midfielder, who recently transitioned to playing in Brazil under the management of his former teammate Filipe Luis, made a strong statement regarding the perceived passion of football followers.
Niguez, who dedicated over a decade to Atletico Madrid and accumulated more than 400 appearances for the club, did not hold back in his praise for the Brazilian giants. He insisted that Flamengo's fanbase exhibits a level of genuine passion that significantly dwarfs that of the reigning European champions.
While preparing for a crucial upcoming final against Paris Saint-Germain, Niguez seized the opportunity to take a jab at his old crosstown rivals. His remarks suggest that the atmosphere at Real Madrid's Santiago Bernabeu stadium lacks the soul and fervor found at Rio de Janeiro's Maracana.
