Florentino's Response About Ancelotti's Future Surprises Everyone: 'This Is...'

The 2025 Laureus Awards ceremony was filled with notable statements and situations, and once again, Luís Figo was one of the protagonists. During his walk on the red carpet and while speaking with the press, the former Portuguese player coincided with Florentino Pérez. At that moment, the Portuguese caused a curious moment in which Carlo Ancelotti—who was not present—also had his share of the spotlight.

The Real Madrid coach is at the center of controversy among part of the fans. In fact, this topic has been one of the most discussed during the Laureus Awards. Relevant soccer personalities, such as the national coach Luis de la Fuente, were consulted on the matter, and Luís Figo was also one of those who had to speak out.

While the former Portuguese footballer was talking to journalists, Florentino Pérez appeared on the red carpet. Upon noticing his presence, Luís Figo called out to him to catch his attention and asked him a question related to Carlo Ancelotti.

The Moment Between Luís Figo and Florentino Pérez

Without going into details on the subject, the Real Madrid president chose to divert attention to Luís Figo, highlighting his relevance. However, the most unexpected occurred when, after greeting the footballer, Florentino took advantage of a moment of distraction from the Portuguese—who was greeting others present—to discreetly withdraw.

"Many people believe that Barcelona are favorites for the Copa final...", they commented to Luís Figo. "That doesn't mean anything. Look, here comes the president, you can ask him...", the Portuguese replied as Florentino appeared in the background.

"President! You can ask him. Presi!", insisted Luís Figo. "They're asking me about Ancelotti", the Portuguese told Florentino loudly.

"This is Luís Figo, in case you don't know him", replied Florentino Pérez. Immediately afterward, the Real Madrid boss slowly left the scene, while journalists asked him various questions about Carlo Ancelotti.

The Italian coach of Real Madrid was not present at the 2025 Laureus Awards gala, but his name did resonate.
