Florentino Under Fire: "It was written by a woman, I don't know if she understands football"

One of the most controversial moments during Florentino Pérez's hastily called press conference on Tuesday occurred when the Real Madrid president made a sexist comment while criticizing the Spanish press and announcing new elections for the club's Board of Directors.

In a speech where he claimed to be a victim of persecution and asserted his full health, the top executive of the Madrid club clashed with journalist Rubén Cañizares from the newspaper ABC, delivering a critique that is now sparking significant controversy in Spain.

“My father always read ABC and subscribed for me many years ago. I wanted to honor my father, but now I've decided to cancel my ABC subscription. Every day you attack Real Madrid. Look at the two articles you've written today. One of them was written by a woman, and I don't know if she understands football or not,” the *Blancos* president stated.
