Florentino Pérez has been re-elected president of Real Madrid with % of the vote.
The club members who voted in the elections held this Sunday at Real Madrid City (from 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.) gave Enrique Riquelme 35% of the vote (11,814) and Florentino 65% (21,741).
"This has been a great day for Real Madrid. Thank you for your support in helping us win these elections. We won at every polling station and achieved the second-best result in the history of Real Madrid elections; the best was in 2004," he told the press.
In addition, Florentino fired back: "More than a thousand postal votes have been taken from us, despite being certified before a notary, due to technical issues. We are going to appeal because we believe we are right."
Pérez went to vote at 9:57 a.m.; Riquelme did so at 10:53 a.m., and the count was marked by the challenge and annulment of around a thousand postal votes due to various irregularities.
Florentino’s platform included returning economic ownership to the club members, appointing Mourinho as coach, and signing Konaté and Dumfries, as well as a €150 million offer for a major star who has not yet been publicly identified. Riquelme, meanwhile, had promised to bring in Klopp as manager, Haaland as the marquee signing, and Rodri, with Raúl, Hierro, or Casillas in his executive leadership team.
Florentino Pérez has been president of Real Madrid since 2000, with a break between 2006 and 2009. His new term begins with the spotlight on the summer transfer market and the unveiling of the new sporting project.
The first transfer-market moves, with Mourinho as the central figure, will be the first real test of his campaign promises.
