Former Espanyol youth coach and player Angel Morales has hit out at Real Madrid striker Joselu.

Joselu is on-loan at Real from the Segunda club.

Morales stated on social media: Beyond the football debate, loaned would not be the ideal adjective. He is a player who blackmailed RCDE and got off the boat when he was needed most.

Yes, yes, but on loan. He left as many others have left, in good or poor fashion. The only clear thing is that the club gave in to his demands...

...to his blackmail. And I better not continue."

Morales later deleted his posts on X.
