The 79-year-old secured a convincing 65 per cent of the vote, collecting 21,741 ballots to comfortably defeat challenger Enrique Riquelme, who received 11,814 votes, representing 35 per cent, according to figures released by the club's electoral commission.
The outcome reinforces Pérez's enduring influence at the Santiago Bernabéu and signals continued confidence in the leadership that has overseen one of the most successful periods in the club's history.
Speaking shortly after the result was announced, Pérez hailed the victory as a landmark moment for the Spanish giants.
“This is one of the most significant elections in the history of our club,” Pérez declared, while promising supporters that Real Madrid would continue pursuing excellence and maintaining its tradition of winning major honours.
The election campaign lasted two weeks and was initiated by Pérez himself as he sought a renewed mandate from club members following two successive seasons without a major trophy. While his position at the club has often appeared unassailable, the latest vote represented the first genuine electoral challenge he has faced since 2006.
Since returning to the presidency in 2009, Pérez has repeatedly been elected unopposed, retaining his position in 2013, 2017, 2021 and 2025 without facing any rival candidate. This year's contest therefore offered members a rare opportunity to choose between competing visions for the future of the club.
Pérez's record remains one of the strongest arguments in his favour. During his stewardship, Real Madrid have enjoyed remarkable domestic and European success, capturing seven UEFA Champions League titles and seven La Liga championships. Those achievements have helped cement the club's reputation as the dominant force in modern European football.
Attention now turns to what Pérez plans for his new four-year term. The president has already outlined ambitious objectives aimed at restoring Real Madrid to the summit of world football.
Among the proposals reportedly under consideration are the return of José Mourinho to the managerial dugout and moves for highly-rated defenders Ibrahima Konaté and Denzel Dumfries. Pérez has also suggested that the club could pursue another marquee signing in the mould of the famous "Galáctico" era, with reports indicating that Real Madrid may be prepared to spend more than €150 million on a world-class attacking player.
Meanwhile, defeated candidate Enrique Riquelme accepted the verdict of the members after campaigning on a markedly different agenda. His proposals included efforts to bring Jürgen Klopp to the club and ambitious plans to target elite talents such as Erling Haaland and Rodri.
Despite the challenge, the election result ultimately reflected the trust many members continue to place in Pérez's leadership and long-term vision. His re-election ensures continuity at boardroom level as Real Madrid seek to begin a new chapter of success on the pitch.
Beyond football matters, Pérez is also expected to explore broader structural reforms, including the possibility of selling a minority stake in the club as part of efforts to strengthen its financial position and support future growth.
With a fresh mandate secured, the veteran president now faces the task of translating electoral support into renewed sporting success, as supporters look for Real Madrid to reclaim major silverware in the years ahead.
