Florentino Pérez has been re-elected -- unopposed -- as Real Madrid president for the next four years, the club has confirmed.
Pérez called presidential elections earlier this month, and potential candidates had 10 days to submit their candidacies to the club's board, ESPN reported.
The 77-year-old construction magnate and former politician has been Madrid president in two spells, between 2000 and 2006, and since 2009.
The club has strict eligibility requirements: A candidate must have been a Real Madrid member for at least 20 years, and be able to provide a bank guarantee -- backed by their own personal wealth -- worth at least 15% of the club's budget.
Pérez has not faced an opposition candidate since returning as president in 2009, with no challengers in 2013, 2017, 2021 and now in 2025.
