Real Madrid posted a statement on its website today to deny that Florentino Pérez intends or is thinking of resigning. In its statement on the club’s official website, Madrid assures that “in the face of some rumor that appeared on some social networks stating that president Florentino Pérez was supposedly considering leaving the presidency of the club, Real Madrid C.F. wants to state the following : That these rumors are flatly false and obey some interests that have nothing to do with reality”.
It is not a common practice for the white entity to officially deny anything that is said on social networks and that goes against what is considered the official line.
In fact, despite the president’s advanced age (76 years), sources in his circle do not rule out that he wants to extend his term once it ends, in June 2025. These sources point out that it is not understandable that the president considers resigning. four months after inaugurating what he considers one of the summits of his mandate, the remodeling of the Santiago Bernabéu.
The club’s statement also states that “at the next General Assembly of Real Madrid Representative Members, the club’s Board of Directors will not propose on the agenda any point in which the name of Real Madrid City is discussed.” .
In this sense, it is true that in previous assemblies, in the question and answer section, several partners had asked that the sports city of Valdebebas be renamed Florentino Pérez. At that time the president did not say yes or no. Other partners have also requested that the Bernabéu be renamed Florentino Pérez, to which the aforementioned has always flatly refused.
