The Argentine legend praised the nine-time European champions and expressed that Los Blancos were named the club of the 20th century for a good reason.
Di Stefano praised Los Blancos and believes that it was his good fortune that he was able to wear the white jersey of the Spanish capital-based club.
Los Vikingos are considered to be one of the greatest clubs in the history of football and the Argentinean star said that one can only experience the real magnificence of the great club when one becomes a part of it and plays a role in creating history with
them.
Madrid are among the three Spanish clubs that have never been relegated from the top flight of Spanish football, the other two being Barcelona and Athletic Bilbao.

Such is the dominance of the Santiago Bernabeu outfit over Spanish football that the team having the second-highest number of La Liga titles is Barcelona and they fall 10 titles short of Madrid.
According to the club’s official website, Di Stefano quoted:
"There are many reasons why this entity was named the Best Club of the 20th Century and why it is the most universal sports entity in the world, but it's when you're part of it that you become aware of the greatness of its history."
