On May 12, according to Hupu news, José Félix Díaz, editor-in-chief of Aspen newspaper, wrote an article. The article mentioned Florentino and the relevant situation at the press conference after the Real Madrid board meeting.
At close to 4 p.m., Real Madrid announced something. That thing was that club president Florentino would hold a press conference in Valdebebas two hours later. For the next two hours, the media were doing one thing and that was speculating on what the Real Madrid president would talk about after the board meeting. The outside world knew very little about the content of the conference, and judging from the final situation, this appearance was very disappointing.
In view of the uniqueness of this press conference, everyone originally expected Florentino to provide an in-depth analysis of why Real Madrid has encountered difficulties this season. For much of the season, Real Madrid presented a discouraging appearance where the analysis was absent. What might have been some self-reflection around the performance of the first team turned into an attack on some media outlets and the announcement of a presidential election process.
The former is seen as the "responsibility bearer" in many situations this season, while the latter opens the door to candidates who may become chairman. In fact, none of these potential candidates emerged a year ago, when Florentino Perez was re-elected without a vote. If Real Madrid members have proven anything, it is that even if there have been some boos at the Bernabeu this season, they still have faith in the work of the current board of directors.
Florentino held the view that it was not the right time to talk about sports-related issues, and he himself expressed this. However, rather than confronting the media and criticizing the so-called "bad reporters", what Real Madrid fans really want to know and want to know in detail is where the first team will go next. Indeed, it is undeniable that Real Madrid still has three games left this season, but members have long been certain that the club will not be in a dangerous situation within the existing framework. The crux of the problem is that they still haven't been able to figure out exactly what direction this team, which successfully won the Champions League and La Liga championships just two years ago, will continue to move in the days to come.
As for Florentino's direct attack on Barcelona, this newspaper has already given a preview last Sunday. The current focus is on UEFA, and UEFA now has many strategies in common with Real Madrid. The concept of "stealing the championship" was put on the table for the first time at the Real Madrid club level. In Valdebebas, they hope that the 500-page document will cause Barcelona to be excluded from European competitions.
However, the actual situation is that there is no way back. Both clubs are waiting for the outcome in court, one because of what they did and the other because of what they said.
