Following his switch from Inter Milan to Real Madrid, Croatian midfielder Mateo Kovacic was introduced to the assembled Madrid press for what should have been a routine unveiling.
Kovacic, however had other ideas. And his first words to his new people of Madrid were “Bon dia a tots”, (Catalan for good day everyone) delivered with a beaming smile that suggested Kovacic was very pleased with his introduction, but obviously had no idea of the faux par he had just committed.
Fortunately for Kovacic, after a couple of seconds of awkward silence, he continued the rest of the interview in English.
