Current president of Real Madrid Florentino Pérez has been considering a deep change in the ownership model of the club for some time. According to close sources, the plan would involve the Real Madrid Foundation assuming majority ownership of the team. The members, who have been the owners of the club until now, would become stockholders, opening up the possibility of a mixed-capital model.
Florentino Pérez's aim is for the Foundation to remain the main owner. This way, the identity and values of Real Madrid would continue to be protected by an institution committed to the club. By having the majority, the Foundation would also allow the influence of the members to be maintained, but with a more flexible and modern structure.
A Significant Change in the Role of Partners
The plan would involve current partners becoming stockholders. This change would grant them ownership rights through shares, albeit under a different model. The move could improve partner engagement and, in turn, allow for a more dynamic economic structure adapted to current challenges.
Florentino Pérez has made it clear that, in his vision for the future, the club could receive private investment in a limited proportion. This would open the doors to the entry of companies that can provide capital without having majority control. The possibility of these investors participating in the club's shareholding would guarantee the flow of additional resources for strategic projects.
The Balance between Tradition and Innovation
For Florentino Pérez, this change doesn't mean a loss of identity, but rather a necessary evolution. The intention is to maintain the essence of Real Madrid and reinforce it with a solid and flexible financial model. In his view, the entry of a minority of external capital would be a further boost. At the same time, it wouldn't affect the autonomy or philosophy of the club.
Ramón Álvarez de Mon, a soccer analyst and a close follower of the club's movements, supports Florentino Pérez's strategy. According to his comments, the president of Real Madrid "is sure about it" and knows where to direct this project. This support reinforces the credibility of the plan, which points to a solid future for the club.
Real Madrid and the Challenges of the 21st Century
In a context of fierce competition and changing financial needs, this mixed ownership model could be the key to ensuring the club's growth. Florentino is betting on a structure that combines stability and adaptability. With the Foundation as a central pillar and the possible entry of private capital, Florentino's Real Madrid would be ready to face the challenges of modern soccer.
