Florentino Perez Addresses Real Madrid Members Ahead of Elections

Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has addressed club members on the eve of the presidential elections.

I am a man of Real Madrid. Others want to take over the club, but the final word belongs to you.

We will work harder than ever to ensure the club remains in the hands of its members. I will use all my strength to prevent anyone from taking away the wealth that belongs to us. We, the club members, are the owners of its past, present, and future.

We have done a great job in bringing Real Madrid to its current level. According to Forbes, we have created the most valuable sports project in the world. Even prestigious universities like Harvard are studying us.

I won the elections in 2000 and brought stability to the club. In 2009, I had to return to defend the team's values.

I will do everything in my power to ensure that the sovereignty of the club's true owners, its members, is never called into question. No matter how many lies are told, they will not be able to take away what belongs to us.

Let's not forget the wealth we have in our hands, said Perez.
