Enrique Riquelme Warns Real Madrid of Financial Crisis

Enrique Riquelme, a candidate for the Real Madrid presidency, warned on Saturday that the club faces a grave financial crisis. He pledged to launch an external audit if he wins the election. Riquelme described the situation as a "gravísima crisis financiera". He urged the board to "levantar las alfombras y abrir las ventanas en Concha Espina" to increase transparency. The proposed audit would assess the true financial condition of the entity. Riquelme said the audit would be carried out only after his election victory. The remarks increase pressure on the current administration ahead of the vote. The audit promise aims to give members a clear picture of Real Madrid's finances.
