A press conference by Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez, one of the most powerful men in Europe, has turned into a political row engulfing commentors, the media and progressive politicians accusing the football chief of sounding like Donald Trump.
In a rare QA with the press, Pérez said he would not step down after a disastrous season, in which Real Madrid failed to qualify for the Champions League final and lost La Liga title to Barcelona. "I am sorry to say that I am not resigning,” he said.
