Arteta.. Florentino Pérez's New Dream to Lead Real Madrid
Sunday 18-01-2026
Mikel Arteta's name has once again come to the forefront within the corridors of Real Madrid, as the management searches for a top-tier coach to lead the next project following a turbulent period for the technical staff. According to the website "Fichajes," Florentino Pérez sees the Arsenal coach as the ideal choice to bring about a radical change in the team.

The same source explained that the president of Real Madrid does not want temporary solutions; rather, he seeks to hire a coach who has clear ideas, a strong personality, and the ability to manage a dressing room full of big names—qualities that Pérez believes Mikel Arteta possesses.

The report pointed out that Arteta's work with Arsenal has not gone unnoticed, given the strong results the English team is achieving both domestically and in Europe, which has attracted the attention of several major clubs, foremost among them Real Madrid.

According to the website, Arteta's extended contract with Arsenal, along with his strong relationship with the London club, make the deal complicated but not impossible, especially given Pérez's admiration for the Spanish coach's ability to build a long-term project.

The report confirmed that Arteta remains currently focused on his work with Arsenal; however, Real Madrid's interest is genuine and ongoing, and it could turn into an official move if the right conditions arise, as part of the royal club's efforts to start a new phase with strong technical leadership.
