Sport newspaper revealed that Real Madrid president Florentino Perez motivated the club’s stars to comeback against Arsenal using a financial incentive.
Real Madrid needs a four-goal win at the Santiago Bernabéu to qualify for the semi-finals after losing the first leg 3-0 to Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.
According to the latest report, Perez visited the dressing room after Real Madrid’s La Liga victory over Alaves on Sunday and urged the players to give their all in the second leg.
At the same time, the president addressed Kylian Mbappé and the rest of the stars, telling them directly, “If you win and qualify for the semi-finals, you will receive a huge bonus from the club.”
Perez has become accustomed to motivating Real Madrid players in this manner, and he did the same after the second leg of the Round of 16 match against Atletico Madrid.
It’s worth noting that Jude Bellingham confirmed that the most frequently repeated word in the Real Madrid dressing room is “Remontada,” and that all the team’s players believe in their ability to make a comeback.
