Florentino Pérez Responds to Barcelona’s LaLiga Triumph with a Bold Promise and Transfer Moves
Barcelona secured the LaLiga title tonight in Cornellà with a 0–2 victory over Espanyol, a match clouded by controversy and questionable refereeing decisions that many believe hindered Real Madrid’s chances to compete until the end.
This marks Barcelona’s 28th league title, adding another trophy to their collection. However, the win has been tainted by serious refereeing errors that played a significant role in the season’s outcome.
In his post-match remarks, Barça president Joan Laporta adopted a defiant and somewhat victimized tone, stating:
“We have regained our joy and pride. Our coach has led the team brilliantly—one of the keys to our success. This has been a historic season. We’ve won a league against all odds. They’ve tried to destabilize us like never before, putting numerous obstacles in our way. This title belongs to our supporters who stood by us and helped maintain institutional stability. We’ve won three titles through excellence. This has been the most difficult league of my presidency.”
Florentino Pérez’s Response
Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez acknowledged that this was not a successful year for Los Blancos. Still, he remains optimistic and determined. In response to Laporta’s words and Barcelona’s triumph, Pérez sent a message that reflected resilience and ambition:
“Next year, Madrid will return—we will win, for sure.”
Backed by this mindset, Pérez is preparing a strategic rebuild for the squad. Key transfer targets include:
- Trent Alexander-Arnold
- Dean Huijsen
- Álvaro Carreras
- A creative midfielder in the mold of Tijjani Reijnders
Additionally, Xabi Alonso is set to join the club in a prominent role, bringing enthusiasm and tactical vision to help restore Real Madrid’s competitiveness both in LaLiga and on the European stage. This rejuvenation is part of Pérez’s mission to lead the club back to dominance.
