The impact of the new Bernabéu is still in the spotlight, especially after last Sunday’s historic NFL game that once again showcased the stadium worldwide. In an interview with GQ, Florentino Pérez reflected on this new era for Real Madrid.

He explained that the goal is to elevate every fan’s experience at the stadium: “Any Madridista who comes to the Bernabéu has to feel like they’re part of something special, and technology allows us to do just that: improve every interaction and strengthen the emotional connection with all our fans.”

Pérez also revealed the club’s next step in innovation: “The closest thing to that experience will be the new virtual reality immersion we are developing. A place where anyone can experience a match with a sense of presence and emotion that was previously impossible. It will be like opening the stadium doors to the entire planet, without limits and with a level of technology that will mark a turning point in the world of sports.”

When asked about financial results, he clarified that money is not the priority: “What’s truly essential is offering Real Madrid’s one billion fans the experience they want to have.”

He closed with a reflection inspired by the tech world: “Steve Jobs wasn’t obsessed with financial results; he was obsessed with creating extraordinary products. When you focus on excellence, the rest falls into place.”
