Real Madrid President Florentino Pérez Wins New Term as Club Faces Election Turmoil

Real Madrid members re‑elected president Florentino Pérez and his board for a new three‑year mandate that runs until 2030. The election, described as a campaign against him by opponents, was seen by many supporters as a vote of confidence in Pérez’s leadership after two seasons without major trophies. Pérez has pledged to restore discipline on the field, naming José Mourinho as a chief figure and targeting high‑profile signings such as Mattia Dumfries, Ibrahima Konaté and Bernardo Silva. He also submitted a €150 million offer for Julián Álvarez, pressuring FC Barcelona to increase its bid.

In parallel, Enrique Riquelme, a senior club figure, published a letter urging Pérez and the organization to adopt calm, reflection and patience amid the competitive pressure. The message highlighted the need for measured decision‑making and unity as the club navigates a demanding sporting environment.
