One Direction visited Real Madrid

Niall Horan, Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson were the One Direction band members who visited the facilities at Real Madrid’s Football City to see the Whites’ training session. All three were dressed in shorts and first spoke with Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho, with whom they were photographed before he gave them each a Real Madrid shirt with their name on.

"We are in the middle of a European tour right now and we will be performing in Madrid. They told us that we had the opportunity to come to see the Real Madrid players and that is very exciting for us. It is amazing to see how they train and see so many such good players. We are big football fans and Real Madrid are one of the best teams on the planet", said Niall, while Liam admitted:" Cristiano Ronaldo is my favourite player, he is one of the best in the world".

At the end of the training session the three band members greeted and chatted with the players, with whom they had a great group photo taken. Niall, Liam and Louis also took some shots on goal with Cristiano Ronaldo, Modric, Kaka and Essien. Finally, the three One Direction members saw the facilities at Real Madrid’s Football City, about which Louis said: "They are great."
