He predicted Hazard's real Madrid career way back.

Rafa was good enough at football as a child to consider becoming a footballer, but he chose tennis.
His uncle Miguel Ángel Nadal played for Barcelona and the Spain national team.
When Spain won the football World Cup in 2010 Nadal was the only non-footballer to be invited into the locker room to celebrate with the national football team.

That makes perfect sense. I actually reckon this is a great take from Nadal and a great way to look at any transfer.

It’s like if you sign someone for cheap and they’re bad then they were a cheap player but if they play unbelievable they’re a bargain. Rafa knows 🧠

Basically talking about ROI. Nadal has always been very sensible.

It's hard for him to articulate it in english as it's not his native language - but "expensive" is a relative term and therefore largely meaningless. Value-for-money is what matters and time will prove that. £80m for Cristiano was not expensive, but £50m for a bad player is expensive, even though it's less. That's what Nadal is saying.

What a pointless and un insightful thing to say
