Pérez promises Mourinho, Riquelme lures with Haaland

The Real Madrid presidential elections, to be held on Sunday, June 7, are accompanied by a clash of major football names. Incumbent president Florentino Pérez announced that, if re-elected, José Mourinho could return to the club as head coach. Le Figaro ↗

Mourinho appeared in a short video supporting Pérez's campaign, wearing a Real Madrid jersey, and answered affirmatively when asked about a return. According to available information, his arrival is tied precisely to Pérez remaining in office. The Portuguese coach has previously managed Real Madrid, and his name has become one of the main talking points of the campaign's final stretch. SITA ↗

Pérez also announced the planned arrival of defender Ibrahima Konaté, should he defend his presidential post. His challenger, Enrique Riquelme, responded with a promise of his own, pledging to fans the arrival of Norwegian striker Erling Haaland. According to published information, the candidate also signed a notarized commitment to pay club members' season tickets if any of his election promises are not fulfilled. El Pais ↗

In his campaign, Riquelme sharply criticizes Pérez's tenure and questions the way the club is managed. He has also spoken about the president and his circle in connection with economic interests linked to Real Madrid. He has not yet said anything in his campaign about a new coach. El Mundo ↗

The decision will be made by club members with voting rights. The campaign is thus entering its final stretch as a clash of two striking sporting promises: Pérez is banking on Mourinho, Riquelme on Haaland. Index.hu ↗
