Real Madrid president announces planned €150 million signing amid election campaign

Real Madrid’s presidential election campaign features a major announcement from Florentino Perez, who confirmed plans for the club to make a record-breaking €150 million signing. The announcement came alongside statements from candidate Enrique Riquelme about targeting Erling Haaland. Although Perez ruled out several high-profile players, three names have emerged as frontrunners: Michael Olise from Bayern Munich, and PSG teammates Vitinha and Joao Neves. Each player has significant potential and market value, raising complexities in potential deals due to PSG's reluctance to sell. The specifics of the transaction will be outlined in a proposed offer to a Champions League club soon.
