Real Madrid: after revelations about Mourinho and Pérez, another version emerges in Spain

The alleged first disagreement between José Mourinho and Florentino Pérez at Real Madrid is denied by internal sources, who state there is no current conflict. Madrid-Barcelona dismisses the idea of Pérez weakening his leadership, while Mundo Deportivo reports internal tensions following poor team results and discussions about the succession of the president. Pérez was re-elected in June 2026 with 65% of the votes, a few months after a challenging sporting period for the team. Media outlets present conflicting accounts of the club's internal situation.
