The democratic voice of Madridismo has spoken, and the empire remains firmly in the hands of its undisputed modern grandmaster. In a spectacular electoral triumph, Florentino Pérez has been officially re-elected as President of Real Madrid, extending his legendary mandate at the helm of the club until 2030.
Burying the chaotic campaign tactics, financial warnings, and unverified transfer hoaxes floated by challenger Enrique Riquelme, the socios turned out in massive numbers to hand Pérez a crushing, comprehensive victory. Wasting absolutely zero time, the veteran executive took to the podium to outline a terrifyingly ambitious, title-hungry blueprint for his next four years in office—headlined by the official, triumphant return of José Mourinho.
A Historic Landslide on the Ballot Floor
Addressing a jubilant crowd of members and global media, Pérez gloated over the sheer scale of his victory, confirming that his campaign completely swept the floor across every single voting metric.
“We have won the election and we will continue to work hard to keep winning trophies. We won at every polling station and achieved the second-best result in the history of Real Madrid elections. We also achieved the best result in 2004. It is an extraordinary result.”

Ever the meticulous institutional defender, Pérez also revealed a minor bureaucratic battle brewing behind the scenes. He confirmed that the acting board intends to formally appeal the invalidation of nearly a thousand notary-certified postal votes that were thrown out due to procedural anomalies. “We are going to appeal, because we believe we are in the right,” Pérez added, showcasing that even in total victory, he will fight for every single drop of structural compliance.
Pérez praised the transparency and democratic nature of the day, expressing immense pride in the membership: “Once again, you have demonstrated your commitment and loyalty to the club. Today, Real Madrid has won… members have freely expressed themselves to decide the fate of the greatest club in history.”
“I’m Here to Defend the Club”
Riquelme’s campaign heavily relied on trying to shake the core foundations of Pérez’s leadership, but the president’s response on election night was a direct reminder of who built the modern, multi-billion-euro apparatus at Concha Espina.
“I’m still here. The members know me. I’m here to defend Real Madrid. We’re going to keep working so that Real Madrid continues to win titles. We’re going to continue to be proud of the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium, the best stadium in the world. And let there be no doubt: with me as president, Real Madrid has been, is, and will always remain the club of its members.”
The statement is a reassuring, ironclad promise to the socios. Amid the rising tide of state-owned clubs and corporate takeovers across European football, Pérez has guaranteed that under his watch, the ownership structure of Real Madrid remains entirely in the hands of its traditional fan base.
The Mourinho Restoration & Tuesday’s War Path
Beyond the political figures, the absolute highlight of Pérez’s victory speech was his explicit, full-throated endorsement of the dugout’s new leader. The second coming of José Mourinho is no longer an election promise; it is an official institutional mandate.
“Proud to have the best players in the world, proud that one of the best managers in the world is returning, a true Madridista like José Mourinho,” Pérez declared, sending an immediate chill down the spines of Europe’s elite. “You have shown the world what Madridismo is all about… uniting millions of people across the globe, including the Pope, who today, from faraway places, are prouder than ever of our Real Madrid.”
With the presidency secured and Mourinho formally at the wheel, the gears of the summer transfer window are turning at a blinding pace. As we reported yesterday, the structural foundation is already built with closed deals for Ibrahima Konaté and Denzel Dumfries, alongside ongoing tracking for Bernardo Silva and Riccardo Calafiori.
Now, the countdown officially begins for tomorrow, Tuesday. With his democratic mandate completely renewed, Pérez is fully expected to pull the trigger on his sensational, record-shattering €150 million Galáctico bid for Bayern Munich’s Michael Olise.
The election circus is over. The challenger has been systematically dismissed. Florentino Pérez has defended his crown, and alongside José Mourinho, he is ready to unleash an unprecedented era of ruthless, world-conquering dominance. The empire is back to work.
