Haaland before a notary, Mourinho on the bench and 150 million in the air: the wildest elections at the Bernabéu
- Enrique Riquelme presented a notarial document promising to sign Erling Haaland, but the player's father and agent deny any agreement
- Florentino Pérez responded with concrete facts: Mourinho already signed, Dumfries and Konaté on track, and a minimum offer of 150 million euros
- Real Madrid elections are held on Sunday 7 June 2026 with an electoral campaign characterized by spectacular promises and transfer market moves
If Madrid's election were a TV series, this week would've jumped the shark. Enrique Riquelme, the challenger, showed up on El Hormiguero with a notarized document promising the signing of Erling Haaland if he wins on Sunday. Problem: Alfie Haaland and Rafaela Pimenta, the player's father and agent, denied any agreement whatsoever.
Florentino, who's won more elections than the Bernabéu has season ticket holders, hit back with done deals: Mourinho already signed, Dumfries and Konaté in the works, and the announcement of a formal offer of at least 150 million —the biggest in club history— that he'll present on Tuesday to a Champions League club. The club's name? He didn't say. Suspense is good campaigning too.
