ResumoIn the 50s and 60s of the last century, Real Madrid Club of Football became the sportive herald of “Spanish miracle”, generating in Spain and abroad a wave of admiration that was promptly capitalized by the Franco regime. During the Francoism, the club became one of the most effective disseminators of “banal nationalism” that the dictatorship would inculcate in the population, especially the emigrants abroad. This image of Real Madrid as an internationally successful sport entity allows us to reflect on the relationships that are established between sport and political power, especially in the elusive theme of national identities.
