Perez criticised those responsible for leaking details publicly, arguing the leak itself caused more damage than the actual confrontation between both players.
Perez Responds to Criticism From Supporters
The veteran president also addressed growing frustration from supporters following another disappointing year without a major trophy at the Santiago Bernabeu this season.
Perez condemned fans for booing players during matches, insisting supporters should back the team instead of creating further negativity around performances publicly.
He blamed sections of ultras and organised groups for encouraging anti-board chants, including recent calls demanding his resignation from club leadership recently, reports Football Espana.
Despite speculation surrounding managerial changes and Jose Mourinho potentially returning, Perez refused discussing football matters or future appointments during the conference.
Perez instead focused on defending his leadership record, insisting his priority remains protecting Real Madrid’s identity and ownership structure for club members.
