Mateo Kovacic hasn’t made the ideal start to life as a Real Madrid player.

The midfielder, signed from Inter Milan this week for a deal worth around €35 million, introduced himself at his official unveiling with the words “Bon dia a tots,” which is Catalan for “Good day, everyone.”

Speaking with the dialect of archrivals Barcelona is probably up there with the worst possible ways of endearing yourself to the Real Madrid faithful, especially as Kovacic had previously been linked with a move to Barca, per Joe Short of the Express.

Kovacic will now be doubly keen to impress on the pitch and put this unfortunate episode behind him.
