Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez calls for new elections at club and seeks another term

MADRID (AP) — Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez has called for new elections at Real Madrid and says he will seek another term after claiming he is the victim of a campaign to unseat him.

He dismissed rumors that he was tired of the job, or sick, saying these had been spread by opponents.

The president spoke Tuesday after a meeting of the club’s board of directors, two days after and saw the Catalan rival clinch its second straight Spanish league title.

That meant Madrid has endured a second consecutive season without a major trophy, despite having on the squad.
