Perez: This is the Reason for Alonso's Failure, and the Negreira Case is a Systematic Corruption

The president of Real Madrid, Florentino Perez, appeared in a media interview with the famous Spanish journalist Josep Pedrerol, where he discussed many issues, including the Negreira case and Ultras Sur.

Perez said: "What do you think about the potential lawsuit from Barcelona? They will do the right thing. If they believe they should sue us... I wasn't aware of the Negreira case until three years ago. The first to come forward as a victim was Real Madrid, and then I realized that Barcelona had been paying money for more than two decades. Football is waiting for the resolution of the biggest corruption case in the world. Do we want serious football? It is a case of systematic corruption. Real Madrid is the only one that has come forward in the case. La Liga intervened but says nothing."

He added: "Football is waiting for the resolution of the biggest corruption case in the world. Do we want serious football? It is a case of systematic corruption. Real Madrid is the only one that intervened in the case. La Liga intervened but says nothing."

He continued: "Do you think the judiciary will do you justice? I think so. Next week we will present to UEFA the documents for all these years. 500 pages. They are very important documents. Year after year, we documented all the points that were blatantly taken from us. This year they took between 16 and 18 points from us. Ceferin told us we are in the right."

About the Super League: "The European Court of Justice granted us the right, and we have the right to create the Super League. Therefore, we are harmed. But I don't want money; I want the best for football. We are now working with UEFA in a very good relationship. We want to improve football, and UEFA has changed its mind."

He continued: "Will concerts return to the Bernabeu? Real Madrid bears no responsibility. We will negotiate with the regional government to set the rules for us, this is the first time I face these neighbors, the Bernabeu neighbors. I have to believe they are Atletico fans."

He emphasized: "Everyone is against us. Real Madrid is very strong. We are working on implementing everything the regional government asked for, and they must enact legislation that allows us to organize events. We do not make money from concerts; it's a matter of reputation. I believe concerts will return to the Bernabeu. This is the first time I face these neighbors. I have to believe they are Atletico fans."

He noted: "I do not feel pressure in my private company... I don't know why there is this hostility towards Real Madrid. They say Florentino is finished, that he has disappeared... I don't do interviews. I have to live a very private life."

He explained: "Do you like Mourinho? I like all the coaches. He was with us and raised the level of competitiveness. It is not true that I choose the coaches."

About the tension in the locker room: "Everyone gets along excellently. Fights in training have always existed. Ask any club. But what does not exist is the ill will present in this organized campaign."

He added: "Do you think you made a mistake with the journalists because it is their duty to look for leaks? And it is also my duty to criticize journalists. And there is no problem with that. I must defend the owners of Real Madrid, who are the members. Journalists who are considered enemies of Real Madrid should be pointed out, and it is also my duty to criticize journalists. And there is no problem with that. I must defend the owners of Real Madrid, who are the members. Journalists who are considered enemies of Real Madrid should be pointed out."

And whether he made a mistake when he signed Alonso? No. But there was no physical preparation period due to the Club World Cup. And when you don't have a physical preparation period, you collapse physically. We thought the change might solve the issue, but it lasted for a short period and then they collapsed again."

Regarding whether the locker room has too much authority: "No. Coaches have the authority. As for the story that I spoiled the players with pampering, I don't know why you said it. I have never spoken to any player. Even in that period (2006). I swear to you."
