Real Madrid's performance in the recent Club World Cup has left more disappointment than hope. Xabi Alonso's good intentions weren't enough in the face of an ever-increasing level of demand. The defensive shortcomings and lack of intensity were once again exposed.
Key players like Asencio and Rüdiger didn't rise to the occasion in important matches. The mental lapses were constant throughout the tournament. This situation has raised doubts among the fans, although not among the board.
A total reconstruction after the disaster in the Club World Cup
Florentino Pérez still firmly believes in the project led by Xabi Alonso. The president is convinced that he is the ideal coach to open a new era. That's why he has given the green light to several key operations in the market.
Huijsen and Alexander-Arnold are already part of the new project. Additions in midfield and the defensive line are also being considered. The goal is to avoid repeating mistakes and restore solidity to Bernabéu.
The big news Florentino Pérez has received after the World Cup
Despite the sporting disappointment, not all the news has been bad for Real Madrid's president. In the last few hours, Florentino Pérez has received information he had been waiting for a long time. This news changes the mood within the board.
This is a decision made by the highest international soccer authorities. Although it seemed unlikely a few weeks ago, it has finally become a reality. Bernabéu has been confirmed as the venue for the 2030 World Cup final.
Bernabéu will host the 2030 World Cup final: Florentino achieves what seemed lost
Yes, it's now official: Bernabéu will be the venue for the World Cup final. An absolute success for Florentino Pérez, who has worked for years toward this goal. The selection of the white coliseum confirms its enormous institutional weight.
The Spanish bid thus dispels any doubts about its leadership in the tournament. Madrid will be the epicenter of global soccer in five years. The event will provide an economic, touristic, and media boost for the capital.
Florentino celebrates it as another title. For him, Bernabéu represents much more than just a soccer field. It's his personal masterpiece, a symbol of the new Real Madrid.
Madrid prepares to lead off the field as well
This decision comes at a key moment for the white club. After the failure in the Club World Cup, it's necessary to recover excitement. The announcement helps balance the negative feelings of recent weeks.
It also strengthens Florentino Pérez's image as a long-term strategist. His ability to influence continues to make a difference. Real Madrid doesn't just want to dominate on the field, but also off it.
With Bernabéu as the venue for the most desired final, the message is clear. The future lies in Madrid. Florentino has already started to build it.
