Real Madrid:
In 2000, Figo made a hugely controversial move to Barcelona's bitter rivals Real Madrid.
Many Barcelona fans felt betrayed by his transfer and turned against
him, despite Figo having many years of success with Barcelona and having
been a fan favourite for over five years. When he returned three
seasons later in a league match (2002), he got a heated reception from
the crowd and many started throwing objects at him as he took corners and throw-ins, including a pig's head.
Figo's arrival signaled the beginning of Florentino Pérez's "Galáctico era". With Madrid Figo won La Liga2001 and 2003 as well as the 2001-02 Champions League.
