The idea of Florentino Pérez leaving LaLiga and take the first soccer team of the Real Madrid to Premier League could be compared with the intention of the white president that the basketball section enter the NBA.
Florentino himself revealed in 2019, in a meeting with the club’s delegates, that he had maintained contacts with the American league “so that they include us in the Eastern Conference, but they say it is far away.” Despite the ‘no’ of the NBA due to the distance, the Merengue president defended that “the other teams in Spain are not so interested but there are Greek and Turkish clubs with which a European Conference could be held. There are only two NBA clubs with more followers than us on social media ”.
The reasons that led Florentino to try to leave ACB on that occasion they were also inexpensive. “They want to collectivize rights that are ours and that no longer happens even in Russia,” he said, although he also took the opportunity to say that they had been “harmed” in the last two King’s Cups. Refereeing and audiovisual rights, two wars that Florentino also maintains in basketball.
