Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez calls for new elections, seeks another term
MADRID — Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez has called for new elections at Real Madrid and says he will seek another term after claiming he is the victim of a campaign to unseat him.
He dismissed rumours that he was tired of the job or sick, saying these had been spread by opponents.
The president spoke Tuesday after a meeting of the club’s board of directors, two days after Madrid lost 2-0 at Barcelona and saw the Catalan rival clinch its second straight Spanish league title.
That meant Madrid has endured a second consecutive season without a major trophy, despite having France star Kylian Mbappé on the squad.
