Real Madrid presidential candidate Florentino Pérez has unveiled an ambitious €150 million transfer strategy, aiming to bring a "superstar on a par with Cristiano Ronaldo" to the Santiago Bernabéu.
During an appearance on the TV programme *Horizonte*, Pérez disclosed that a significant bid is being prepared for a top player from a major Champions League club, focusing on positions from midfield to attack. This move signals a desire to inject world-class talent into the squad.
Pérez was quick to rule out several high-profile names, specifically mentioning Erling Haaland, Michael Olise, Jeremy Doku, and Harry Kane as not being targets. He also definitively stated that no players from arch-rivals Barcelona would be considered.
Further solidifying his plans, Pérez confirmed that manager José Mourinho has been secured, along with players Ibrahima Konaté and Denzel Dumfries. He hinted that these signings are just the beginning, with more additions expected.
While acknowledging the presence of current stars like Kylian Mbappé and Vinicius Júnior, Pérez emphasized Real Madrid's continuous need for improvement and the pursuit of excellence. The club, he believes, must always strive to acquire the best talent available.
Speculation among potential targets has pointed towards several exciting young talents, including João Neves, Vitinha, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, and Désiré Doué, all currently with Paris Saint-Germain. The acquisition of any of these players would represent a significant investment.
This proposed €150 million transfer would shatter the club's previous transfer record, which was set by the signing of Jude Bellingham, underscoring the magnitude of Pérez's vision for the team.
The overarching goal is to maintain Real Madrid's status as a dominant force in European football by consistently attracting and developing elite talent, ensuring the club remains competitive at the highest level for years to come.
