So they build up suggesting that something huge will happen. And in the end, nothing happens. The whistle blows and game's over. Figo is clearly a liar and not so bright person. He messes up and tried to cheat everyone on his path. So muh excuses and explanations but no honest talk at all. So all this hype for a football trade, wow. I get that it's a sport document and it also sides about other stuff going on back then, but when the main focus is on so meaningless mess up, it's really weak. Maybe someone to Barcelona this might be interesting, but doubt that there's anything useful to them either.

He is a traitor. A liar. This movei isnt show nothing new. Its a documentary? For what? To show what? What this movie want? I dont understand. He just want to clean himself, with more lie. This documentary isnt want to show what happend behind, isnt get any good information, what just realy happend. Ah yeah. We know MONEY. But what Figo want? MONEY. Nothing more. Just look how he looks. 49 years old, and looks like 6o..........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

The documentary appears to be factual but is very boring. In part, perhaps, because we know the ending even before the movie begins. It's valuable in that it documents soccer history in the best league in the world, Spain. Of all the "parties" involved in the transfer, Figo is by far the most credible. He appears to be a serious man. Hats off to Florentino for convincing Figo to leave a club, in only one meeting, where the fans loved him but senior management was a bit distanced from their very own franchise player. Barca has since recovered but they paid the price dearly for a good number of years given their lack of championships.

I was in my teenage years when the transfer took place and it is very interesting to watch a documentary with all the parties involved. As a football fan, I cannot condone that a historical player goes to the archenemy. There are so many clubs out there he could have gone to if he really felt unappreciated. It does seem that he was bullied into signing that contract, especially with his agent being threatened to pay 30 mil to Real if Figo doesn't sign. However, as the documentary points out, Barça is more than a football club, it's also the symbol of a region and a political statement. Unfortunately, money seems to win all the time and ruin it for us, lovers of the beautiful game.

This provides a fresh perspective on the events. It's common practice for the media to use transfer rumors as click bait by spreading untruths. I believe that your perspective would have changed if you were in Figo's shoes. Ultimately, it's up to you to decide what's best for yourself. If you want to be happy, you get to decide....and if you're not happy, you just go somewhere else. With Perez at the helm, it appears that Madrid has a well-defined plan for the future of the club. Previous presidents of their organization have also done an excellent job of leading it. This is the way an official football team should be managed. I believe that every goal Perez set for himself he has accomplished to the fullest extent possible. To sum up, a solid documentary.

Everyone explainis "their truth". Whereas Veigas states that Figo knew about the agreement, he denies it. Florentino says there was no contract, Futre and Veigas say otherwise. Figo did not want to leave even though he says that everything was about "feeling the respect and love from the club but he was offered FOUR times what he was making and Futre ends up confessing that he told Figo "money is the most important at the end". Figo was an idol, was the capitan of a team, had a three year contract and he blackmailed Barça. You can tell he tries to "excuse himself" but what he did was despicable and in Madrid his is one of the "galacticos", one of the bunch. For us is THE TRAITOR. He lies, Florentino lies, and arguably the worst president in Barça history seems to be the only one to tell the truth.

I dont mind people making alot of money, but for me football is passion, and figo is just pure greed. Very good story about how some people really are.

It is sports documentary filmed like a heist drama (because it kinda sorta was a heist?), and boy did I enjoy watching this! You probably know about Figo's transfer from Barcelona to Real Madrid (a cardinal sin to many) but I believe this is the first time EVERYBODY involved are getting together to talk about their version of the truth, even Florentino Perez. This doc gives you some insight into why football is more than a sport, but this time, from a political, business and cultural standpoint. Whether you know this story or not (especially if you don't know about the details) you HAVE to watch this because this is literally the transfer was the cornerstone to Perez's Galácticos and everything that happened at RMA since then is history. Side note, i LOVED the background score in this doc, something you'd not care about in content like this but it added so much to the tension. Would totally recommend, perhaps even if you don't know the sport.

Very good documentary, I found it very interesting to see how everything happened from the 2 points of view, being that different things happened for the 2 parts. I remember when Figo's transfer took place, although it was crazy that changing the team from Barcelona to Real Madrid, I had not been aware of all the backstage that happened in between. Sure because at that time there were no social networks or anything. Nor had I realized at the time when Figo went to sign, his state of mind seems to be very bad. It sure wasn't easy for him to take that step. I remember the time of Real Madrid, he was the first galáctico.
