Overview
- Speaking at the Nov. 23 General Assembly, Florentino Pérez said Real Madrid has initiated a compensation claim against UEFA over the Super League dispute, with press reports indicating potential damages could reach about €4.7 billion.
- He proposed a statute change to set up a club-controlled subsidiary that could sell a small minority stake—up to 10%—to long‑term investors, preserving members’ control and buyback rights.
- Pérez condemned LaLiga’s aborted plan to stage Barcelona–Villarreal in Miami and alleged extra incentives for the clubs, prompting LaLiga president Javier Tebas to promise a detailed rebuttal.
- He revived the Negreira case, asserting Barcelona paid over €8 million to a refereeing official across 17 years and criticizing the standard of Spanish officiating, including FIFA’s failure to select Spanish referees for the Club World Cup.
- He argued elite matches should be free to watch, accused UEFA and LaLiga of prioritizing executive pay, and reiterated Real Madrid’s backing for Super League‑style reforms.
