“We are proud of a player like Vinicius. For us, and for most football fans, the best player in the world. Dear Vini, I want you to know that Real Madrid is proud of you, of everything that you have had to endure many times, unfairly. All this has made you the player you are.”
Perez also spoke about Kylian Mbappe, who he was happy to finally secure the services of during the summer.
“The arrival of Mbappe was one of the events in the world of football. As I said that day, he made an effort that many cannot even imagine. And he has already helped us win the first title: the European Super Cup”.
Finally, 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 May 25 was moving, unforgettable. Dear Toni, you Thank you for everything you have given us. You know this will always be your home. I also want to remember Joselu, who brought us to the final of 15. Thank you, Joselu.
