Speech
At the end of the meal, Florentino Pérez gave his thanks to the supporters' groups for their unwavering support: "The supporters' groups are the ones that provide the backbone of madridismo, not just in Madrid but throughout the whole world. In addition, they've always been very constant in their support. The support offered by the supporters' groups is part of what makes Real Madrid great".

"It's true that it's very important to be united. I sincerely believe that the club has achieved what it has for many reasons. At times, I think that it's difficult to manage a club of this kind. Regardless of how successful we are, this is a world club. You find the club all over the world and Real Madrid has a special place amongst football and basketball fans".
