Enrique Riquelme

Enrique Riquelme is a renewable energy entrepreneur and a candidate for the presidency of Real Madrid, challenging the incumbent Florentino Perez. He has gained recent media attention for his campaign promises, most notably stating his intention to sign Manchester City striker Erling Haaland if elected. This claim has drawn a strong reaction from Manchester City, who are reportedly considering legal action against Real Madrid due to Riquelme's public display of a Haaland jersey with his name on it during his campaign. Riquelme's campaign also contrasts with Perez's, who has pledged to bring back former manager Jose Mourinho if he secures another term. Riquelme's current relevance stems from his active presidential campaign and the significant controversy his transfer claims have generated within the football world.
