"I was very angry about what Vinicius said. Nacho and Lucas Vazquez agreed with me," he said. However, The 29-year-old did not want to reveal what the Madrid left winger said.
"I love him as a player because he has a lot of potential. He is a very good footballer. His team protect him and I think that's fine. But the most important thing is to be a good person. You can be a good player but if you have a dark heart it's impossible," Avila concluded.
