Masip emphasized: "I have always maintained decent dealings with Real Madrid management such as Roberto Carlos and Butragueno. These are two eternal competitors who compete fiercely in various fields, but the relationship is always polite."
Masip also took the opportunity to look forward to the El Clasico that will be staged at the Santiago Bernabeu on October 26: "Regardless of the ups and downs of the competitive status of the two teams, sometimes this news I think the situation is quite good at this stage. Neither side is in perfect condition, but the derby is destined to be a thrilling match. "
"Although this Barcelona team is young but has strength, we must trust the current lineup. But we love challenges, which is the charm of competitive sports, and we will fight to the end. "
