Buffon: 'Ingrates attack Casillas'

By Football Italia staff

Gianluigi Buffon said Real Madrid fans are “ingrates” for their treatment of Iker Casillas.

The goalkeeper has been lambasted by a section of the media and supporters in recent campaigns.

He’s expected to start tomorrow night’s Champions League semi-final second leg against Buffon’s Juventus.

“I find the protest against him to be an unprecedented gesture from ingrates,” said Buffon in his Press conference.

“This lad has been wearing the Real Madrid jersey for 20 years. He certainly received a lot from this club, but he also gave them a great deal too.

“Certain icons do not deserve this kind of treatment.”
