The Golden Ball, a forbidden dream of all footballers. There are those who win six (Messi) and are preparing to compete for the seventh, who at the moment is satisfied with five (CR7) but applies and how to recover ground. And who … regrets one. This is the case of Paulo Futre, a Portuguese football talent of the Eighties and Nineties, with a past in Italy at Reggiana and Milan. In Serie A, due to injuries, the real Futre has not been seen. But when he was at Porto and Atletico Madrid he was considered one of the best in Europe to the point of risking winning the award as best player in 1987. Futre, however, comes second, because the Milan player Gullit wins the award with 106 votes to 91 And this … still does not go down.
GULLIT ... – The Portuguese told about it last year a MundoDeportive, calling into question Silvio Berlusconi, who for a short time was its president. “I still don’t understand what happened. I arrived at Atletico in the summer of 1987, after winning the Champions League with Porto, scoring in the round of 16 and in the semi-finals and playing the best game of my career in the final. I arrive here in Madrid, I am important in the victory at the Camp Nou and I play a big game in the 0-4 with which we beat Real in the Quinta del Buitre at the Bernabeu. Goals and two assists. And so I thought I would win the prize, but it went to Gullit, who was just arrived at Milan from the Dutch championship. He was a great champion, he certainly deserved to win a Ballon d’Or, perhaps even more than one. But that year he had only won the Dutch championship. “
.BERLUSCONI – Futre has always had the suspicion that it was … the Rossoneri’s number one, who then brought him to Milanello a few years later. “There were rumors that Berlusconi would have rigged the prize to win his stellar purchase. It was one of the most adjusted editions, with some really strange grades. Like that of a Portuguese journalist, who misjudged me on purpose and who for the whole vita never wanted to explain to me why. I personally only say one thing: the Champions League against the Dutch league. Frankly, I don’t know that I should have done more to deserve it … “. In short, a decision that still does not go down to the Portuguese …
