Luís Figo loses his cool with Sporting fan, calls him a fool | OneFootball

Luís Figo turned 53 on Tuesday, and Sporting decided to mark the occasion with a post on social media. The message ended up stirring emotions. In the comments, many Sporting fans didn't miss the chance to recall the controversial transfer of the player to Barcelona in 1995, as well as the moment he celebrated a goal against Sporting while playing for Inter Milan.

"Stay away from Alvalade, please," reacted a commenter on Sporting's tribute. Figo saw the response and replied immediately: "Because you want, right? Fool." The exchange of barbs didn't stop there, and the fan retorted: "Luisinho, a fool is always a fool, no matter how much shopping therapy he gets." Figo fired back: "You must be referring to yourself or some family member, Antoninho."

Figo was also called a "pesetero" in another comment, which he also didn't leave unanswered. "Another one who's lost," he wrote. But the harshest exchange happened when a fan commented: "Just thinking that I'm a Sporting fan because of a player who has zero appreciation for the clubs he played for makes me sick!", to which Figo replied, "Careful not to throw up on yourself..."

Luís Figo, who recently shone in a legends game, did all his training at the Alvalade Club and, from 1990 to 1995, served the senior team. With the green and white stripes, the former footballer scored 23 goals in 155 matches, winning the Portuguese Cup in 1994/1995.

Afterwards, he left Sporting for the Spaniards of Barcelona, before transferring to Real Madrid in 2000, and to Inter in 2005. In 2000, he won the coveted Ballon d'Or, establishing him as one of the greatest Portuguese players ever.
