Claudemir Vitor was elected to the right side of Real Madrid back in September 1993. The real Madrid, I longed for the services of a young man Cafú who already pointed out as the best side in the world. The Sao Paulo, He came to a strange agreement with the then president of Real Madrid, the always controversial Ramon Mendoza. One of those extravagant presidents of Spanish football 90.

that agreement, was that the Brazilian club, He put up with Cafú for another season and while they gave him Vítor. Things turned out poorly because the one who would later be one of The best right backs in the history of football, He never wore the white shirt and Madrid took a player whose time at Real Madrid was going to be short-lived.. And for merits more than their own, uno de los peores fichajes de la historia del Real Madrid

They sneaked in Claudemir Vitor instead of Cafú

Sold as another Cafu, The Brazilian full-back was introduced to the then Madrid president as a true genius on the wing despite arriving with few references regarding his game.. By agents, It was a fast player, good defensively and had been international with Brazil on three occasions.

To give you an idea, Upon arrival in Madrid, Vitor, He was asked about his knowledge of such a big club like white. Neither short nor lazy, affirm not know and the Quinta del Vulture, or how many titles had the Real Madrid. Clearly, Google did not exist but Real Madrid was to spare known in the world. El brasileño, almost I did not know that team fichaba, with the beginning, it presaged a bad end.

The firecracker for Ramón Mendoza

Vítor came with 22 years and was unable to demonstrate a capacity to play at a club like Real Madrid. His performance was limited to three games absolutely disastrous and ended up being named by Ramon Mendoza, como un “firecracker” after a match against Oviedo. During his time at Real Madrid he was seen in “trading cards”, never better said. Vítor returned to Brazil, It didn't even arrive halfway through the season. 1993-94 and disappeared from the Madrid and Spanish football radar for years.

Claudemir Vitor appeared again on the Madrid path in 1998

Specifically up to 5 años después, hasta el 1 from December to 1998, when he met Madrid again in the final of the Intercontinental Cup in Tokyo and where Claudemir Vitor, He became champion of the Copa Libertadores with Vasco de Gama.

That day, in a final that Real Madrid won by 2 a 1 Vasco ended up sitting after a great cut by Raúl in the great goal that gave the Intercontinental title to the white team. Remember the “Aguanis goal?, because the defense that Raul was left looking the same Vitor, ¿lo sabías?.
