Perez was caught off guard by Cokurola deal
Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez was surprised by the completion of the Spanish defender Marco Koke Korrella's transfer, as he was not aware of it until immediately before it was finalized. The deal was negotiated over just two days, with the club's management team led by José Ángel Sánchez responsible for drafting the offer and presenting it to the player's agents while they were attending the Spain national team camp during the 2026 World Cup. The transfer was finalized for an amount of 60 million euros, despite potential delays until the end of the tournament possibly increasing the fee due to Korrella’s strong performances during the World Cup, where he was one of the standout players for the victorious Spain team. This move is considered a significant addition for Real Madrid, as Korrella is currently a world champion and will be part of the club's squad to strengthen their defense.
