25 Years of Florentino Pérez: The Good & The Bad of Real Madrid's legendary president (Soccer 7/16)

The Morning Footy crew marks 25 years of Florentino Pérez at the helm of Real Madrid - one of the most influential and polarizing figures in modern football history. From Galácticos to Super Leagues, we dive into Pérez’s legacy: the titles, the spending, the controversy, and the unmatched global reach he helped build. Has he elevated the game or bent it to his will? Guillem Balagué joins to offer insight into Pérez’s role in shaping LaLiga, his impact on the European landscape, and what might come next for a man who never stops chasing the next crown. Morning Footy is available for free on the Audacy app as well as Apple Podcasts, Spotify and wherever else you listen to podcasts.  Visit the betting arena on CBSSports.com for all the latest in sportsbook reviews and sportsbook promos for betting on soccer For more soccer coverage from CBS Sports, visit https://www.cbssports.com/soccer/ To hear more from the CBS Sports Podcast Network, visit https://www.cbssports.com/podcasts/ Watch UEFA Champions League, UEFA Europa League, UEFA Europa Conference League, Serie A, Coppa Italia, EFL, NWSL, Scottish Premiership, Argentine Primera División by subscribing Paramount Plus: https://www.paramountplus.com/home/ Visit the betting arena on CBS Sports.com: https://www.cbssports.com/betting/ For all the latest in sportsbook reviews: https://www.cbssports.com/betting/sportsbooks/ And sportsbook promos: https://www.cbssports.com/betting/promos/ For betting on soccer: https://www.cbssports.com/betting/soccer/ To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
