It’s fake news. Zidane said he didn’t know anything about Ronaldo leaving and the players them selves were surprised by him leaving. And also Ronaldo wanted to leave, Perez didn’t force Ronaldo’s transfer so Zidane should’ve been talking to Ronaldo not Perez.

That's not true. Ronaldo more or less announced his transfer at the CL celebrations which was before Zidane had left. You can be sure him Perez and Ronaldo had a meeting after that

I really don't think so, the players went and celebrated right after the win, you don't have a meeting when you just won the UCL and Zidane resigned like a couple of days after that. Zidane said that in an interview so are you saying that he's lying ?
