Jermaine Pennant admits his plan to sign for Real Madrid greatly angered then manager Juande Ramos.
The former Tottenham and Sevilla boss spent a short stint at the Bernabeu and was less than impressed when he was informed about an agreement which would take Pennant to the Spanish capital. The winger had made his name at Liverpool, but was surplus to requirements at Anfield.
His representative held discussions with the Los Blancos hierarchy and a deal was struck, but not with the consent of Ramos. The coach decided to curtail the deal, leaving Pennant to quickly review his options and he end up heading south to Portsmouth on a six-month loan, before later ending up in Spain anyway.
