Three days before the election for the presidency of Real Madrid, the two candidates let go and reveal their game. While Enrique Riquelme hit hard by promising the arrivals of Erling Haaland and Rodri, Florentino Perez wanted to be more pragmatic by announcing the signings of Ibrahima Konaté then José Mourinho if he was reappointed at the head of the club.
The Madrid president nevertheless struck a nice blow by offering himself an advertising spot to announce the arrival of the Special One during the show El Hormiguero in which his rival participated. A spot in which the Portuguese technician appears with the Real Madrid jersey and says a simple “if” in support of Florentino Perez.
But the possible signing of José Mourinho hardly appeals to Enrique Riquelme. “He is a good coach, but his style is completely different from ours, he replied. It does not correspond to our project. »
Coach’s name revealed on Friday
“I have another coach in mind, he continued, recalling that if he were elected to the presidency, he would surround himself with former glories of the club, first and foremost Raul and Hierro, expected to become sports director and head of the training center.
“The arrival of Raúl and Hierro is a testament to their professionalism and leadership. They are Real Madrid at heart, and if they stay, they won’t let anyone harm the club.”he underlined before revealing that he would announce, on Friday, the name of the coach who would sit on the bench in Madrid if he won the elections.
