Florentino Pérez: I’m interested in having him as one of the top players.
Florentino Perez: I’m willing to pursue top players personally Madrid’s Real Madrid president, Florentino Perez, clearly stated the club’s transfer strategy during the El Chiringuito broadcast. “When there’s a great footballer in the market, of top level… I’m willing to pursue him,” said Perez. He also emphasized that Real Madrid isn’t willing to settle for anything less than the best. He reminded the journalists of the legendary era of the “Galactikos” club, which he personally led. “We always signed only the best players. I brought in Figo, Zidane, Ronaldinho, Beckham.” He then listed the stars who dominated Europe in the 2010s: “Later came Cristiano Ronaldo, Kaka, and Benzema. And if there’s another great player who comes along, I’ll definitely bring him here.” These words were a direct response to the many speculations surrounding the summer transfer window. Perez made it clear that Real Madrid won’t spend its budget on individual improvements. Instead, the club will focus on its overall goals. The approach remains the same: the club won’t wait for stars to come to Madrid. Instead, it will actively build its squad based on the principle that only those who can win the Champions League and make their mark in history will be brought to Madrid.
