Perez also spoke on Kylian Mbappe, whom he was delighted to finally secure the services of during the summer.

Lastly, Perez gave words for Toni Kroos and Joselu Mato, who both left Real Madrid during the summer.
"It will be very difficult to see someone like Kroos again, one of the best in our history and one of the greatest legends of world football. His tribute on the 25th of May was moving, unforgettable.
