P\u00e9rez insisted that the club &#8220;will win the next battles&#8221; in relation to the Super League.\n\nAround 1500 representatives of Madrid&#8217;s 98,000 members participated in Sunday&#8217;s meeting at the Valdebebas sports city, where the annual accounts were approved and questions were asked to the board.\n\nIn an 80-minute intervention, P\u00e9rez criticized LaLiga&#8217;s failed plan to hold a regular season match in Miami, attacked the changes in Spanish refereeing as &#8220;cosmetic&#8221; after the Negreira case, and stated that he was &#8220;more convinced than ever&#8221; of victory over UEFA in the dispute over the Super League.\n\nP\u00e9rez also confirmed that an extraordinary assembly will be held to vote on the proposals for &#8220;reforms to the club&#8217;s statutes, so that Madrid is better equipped to face challenges and compete on equal terms&#8221;.\n\nIn the 2024 assembly, P\u00e9rez first hinted at the need for a &#8220;corporate reorganization&#8221; to protect Madrid&#8217;s assets after the battles with LaLiga over the CVC investment deal and television rights revenue.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a3.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2025%2F1123%2Fr1579483_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"Florentino P\u00e9rez habla en la asamblea general anual del Real Madrid el domingo.\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n<em>Florentino P\u00e9rez speaks at Real Madrid&#8217;s annual general meeting on Sunday.<\/em>\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<p>We will call a referendum so that all members can vote. The only objective is to protect the club from threats to our assets&#8230; I am going to propose that we be recognized as the true owners of the club.<\/p>\n\n<cite>Florentino P\u00e9rez<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nP\u00e9rez continued: &#8220;We will remain a club of members, but we would create a subsidiary, owned by the members. We will allow 5% for a partner, if someone is willing to invest a significant amount, for a symbolic participation. Those investors must always respect our values.&#8221;\n\nP\u00e9rez did not specify when the meeting will be held.\n\nIn recent years, P\u00e9rez has led the club in a series of disputes with football&#8217;s governing bodies over the future of the sport.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<p>I heard someone say that Real Madrid is against everything, but obviously that&#8217;s not true. There are many things that are wrong. We have to react.<\/p>\n\n<cite>Florentino P\u00e9rez<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nP\u00e9rez added: &#8220;Real Madrid has to lead the battle. Real Madrid is the only sports club that has the institutional strength and wealth to face this battle&#8230; Real Madrid has nothing to fear from these executives, neither in Spain nor in Europe.&#8221;\n\n&#8220;They can&#8217;t pressure us with threats of punishment. Unfortunately, this is not the case for most clubs. Not many are brave enough to speak up&#8230; But we are not alone.&#8221;\n\nP\u00e9rez, who had previously been cautious in his criticism of Barcelona over the Negreira case, changed his tone due to Bar\u00e7a&#8217;s reconciliation with LaLiga and the abandonment of the Super League project.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<p>It is not normal for Barcelona to have paid more than 8 million euros to the vice president of the referees [Negreira] for 17 years. That coincided with the best results in the history of Barcelona.<\/p>\n\n<cite>Florentino P\u00e9rez<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Trent Alexander-Arnold, hope for Real Madrid according to Xabi Alonso<\/li><li>How Mbapp\u00e9&#8217;s start at Real Madrid compares to Ronaldo, Benzema and others<\/li><li>Real Madrid will offer fans a virtual reality experience of the Bernab\u00e9u<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\nLast month, Madrid announced it would seek compensation from UEFA for its Super League blockade, after the Court of Justice of the European Union and a Madrid court determined that UEFA had violated EU competition law.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<p>We still insist that [the Super League] is an essential project for football.

We have two rights: to be compensated for our losses and to organize a competition in the future, and we will pursue both tirelessly.&#8221;\n\nP\u00e9rez stated that the negotiators have worked &#8220;untiringly in the last months&#8221; to try to reach an agreement with UEFA on the matter, but that it has not been possible.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Florentino P\u00e9rez lashes out at LaLiga, Barcelona and UEFA In a combative speech during Real Madrid&#8217;s annual general assembly, Florentino P\u00e9rez, the club&#8217;s president, directed strong criticism towards Javier Tebas, president of LaLiga, FC Barcelona, Spanish referees, and UEFA.
