🚨🎙️ Ferran Torres on his altercation with Raphinha after the match:
Reporter🎙️: “After the match, we noticed a misunderstanding between you and Raphinha. What was that about?”
Ferran Torres🗣️: “Honestly, it wasn’t really a big deal. Rapha is someone who doesn’t know how to hide his anger, and I think me leaving Barcelona is still one of the reasons he’s angry with me. (laughs)
After the match, I went to say hello to some of my old teammates. We were all joking around, and I noticed Rapha wasn’t smiling. So, I tried to joke with him, put my hands on him, and he immediately pushed me away.
Reporter🎙️: “Did he actually say anything to you?”
Ferran Torres🗣️: “Yes! He looked at me and said, ‘Get your hands off me, you snake!’ (laughs)
Then he said, ‘How can you come here and joke with me after everything you said when you left?’
And honestly, I understood him. I know Rapha, and when he’s angry, he doesn’t always think about how his words sound. I knew he wasn’t trying to hurt me; he just wanted me to understand that he was still upset about what I said when I left.
But that’s Rapha. He’s passionate, he speaks his mind, and when something bothers him, he makes sure you know about it.
The funny thing is, he later called me over and gave me a hug. That’s when I knew everything was fine. There’s no problem between us. I’m happy to see my old teammates again, and I know that, deep down, Rapha is happy to see me too. He just needed to remind me that he hadn’t forgotten everything yet!”
