701 Calderon's Death

When Yang Yang won the second World Footballer's trophy in Zurich and received overwhelming praise from media around the world, the Spanish media located in the Iberian Peninsula only reported crazily for one day, and then it was soon followed by another news.

On January 13, Spain's Marca published a scandal of fraud and threatening members at the Real Madrid president Calderon at the Real Madrid membership meeting on December 7, 2008 in the form of an exclusive special issue on the front page.

This is not a piece of news, it can even be said to be an old news.

As early as December 2008, after the Real Madrid membership meeting, various news began to spread one after another. The main content was that in order to pass the financial report of last season and the fiscal budget of this season, Calderon actually used fraudulent methods to get away with it.

The specific method he took was to arrange a large number of fake member representatives to join in and participate in the voting, and finally obtained the number of votes required to pass the report and budget.

At the same time, in order to protect his fraudulent plans, Calderon also specially invited Real Madrid's radical fan organization [Extreme South Stand] to the scene, giving all other members present a shock.

Marca revealed that the opposition at that membership meeting was very loud, but surprisingly, the last two reports were successfully passed, and what was even more surprising was that at that time, there was no notice of how many Real Madrid member representatives participated in the voting.

Not only that, the TV cameras only captured people who voted in favor, but not those who voted against, which created the possibility of statistical fraud.

In an exclusive special issue, Maca said that they had obtained sufficient evidence to prove that Calderon's fraud scandal was true. Not only that, they will further verify the authenticity of Calderon's email ballots in the 2006 election.

...

The revelations of Marca are not news, but old news that has been spread in the Spanish media field, but have always suffered from lack of evidence. Calderon tried every means to make excuses, so not many people took it seriously.

Even Real Madrid chairman Calderon scoffed at the reports of Marca and no one cared about it.

No one responded or followed up in the entire Spanish media circle.

But everyone thought that this matter would be the same as before and was finally left alone. Marca then published an exclusive special issue the next day. This time, the voting photos of Real Madrid members' meeting were directly posted on the cover, and ten of them were circled out.

After the identity verification, nine of the ten voters had nothing to do with Real Madrid, while the other one was a member of Atletico Madrid. However, these ten people appeared at the Real Madrid membership meeting in a grand manner and cast a crucial vote of approval.

Marca publicly questioned Real Madrid's management on the front page headline, saying that these ten people were just part of the fraud, and there were others. So what channels did these people go through and for what purpose to enter Real Madrid's membership meeting?

Also, why do they vote in favor in a report and a budget?

This time, the whole of Spain was shocked!

On the morning of the 14th, the exclusive special issue of Marca was sold in short supply, and all Real Madrid fans in Madrid were shocked.

The rumors were rumors before, but when the truth was confirmed, everyone felt unbelievable.

Some people are so bold and arrogant that they cheated at the Real Madrid membership meeting?

...

Real Madrid responded quickly.

Spokesperson Barcena said that an internal thorough investigation will be conducted to investigate the matter in detail.

Ironically, the next moment, Real Madrid chairman Calderon announced that spokesman Barcena and another club director Baruettel were the culprits of fraud by the members' meeting and the two officials were removed from their posts.

Calderon defended himself, "I am also a victim. I swear by my personality that I don't know these guys who have been involved in the congress. I heard that they are all friends that Barutel asked to help."

Not only that, Calderon also made it clear that he would never resign because he firmly believed that after he resigned, he would hold a presidential election in advance, which would only make the situation even more chaotic.

However, the behavior of Real Madrid chairman did not gain the understanding of Real Madrid members, fans and media. On the contrary, public opinion broke out again.

Everyone questioned, believing that Calderon was shirking responsibility.

"Who would be willing to believe that Barutel and Barsena would run to manipulate the vote without Calderon's permission? What's the benefit for both of them?"

Many Real Madrid fans also said that Calderon swears with his personality, which seems to be full of sincerity, "But in our eyes, your personality is worthless!"

...

Since Calderon was elected as chairman of Real Madrid in 2006, his various actions with his partner Mijatovic at Real Madrid have exhausted their credibility.

Over the past few years, Mijatovic has been deeply involved in the black gold scandal. Calderon not only puts his relatives, friends and partners in the club, but is also profit-oriented and insatiable. He is constantly exposed to scandals by the media. Even if he drinks a cup of coffee, he has to pay with Real Madrid's credit card.

Real Madrid fans even directly called Calderon a position thief, because if the mail-in ballot was not counted back then, Calderon could only be ranked third and would not be the chairman of Real Madrid at all.

And now, Calderon, who was the worst chairman in history by Real Madrid fans, is obviously not alone.

Just a few days ago, UEFA just rejected Real Madrid's complaint.

Calderon and Mijatovic spent 47 million euros this winter to introduce Hunteral and Las Diyala respectively, but the two players were unable to compete in the Champions League for Real Madrid at the same time, and they could only register one of them.

Calderon had previously expressed confidence that the club had prepared more than 200 pages of complaint reports, but it was useless, and UEFA still rejected Real Madrid's complaint.

This made Real Madrid fans feel shameful and the club is criticized inside and outside.

Now, the Marca used this killer move, which made Calderon's internal and external affairs even more difficult, and the sound of get out of class being dismissed became louder and louder.

Even the Ass, who has always been firm in his position, began to shake this time and immediately followed up on the news of the Marca and disclosed that Barutel had long been in the club's monthly salary of 1,000 euros, but drove a luxury car of 70,000 euros.

Ass newspaper questioned Real Madrid's management, where did Barutel get the money?

...

Just when Calderon abandoned the car and tried to launch two suckers, Balsena and Baruitel, to talk back and get away with it again, on January 15, the Marca newspaper published another exclusive special issue.

Calderon said that he did not know the counterfeiter who had been involved in the Real Madrid membership meeting. This time, Marca published a photo, which not only included Calderon, but also his son Jamee, his younger brother Ignacio, Barcena and Baruitel. More importantly, five of the ten pretending to be member representatives appeared in this photo.

The photo is a tour group photo of a private yacht party.

The truth is completely revealed!

The close relationship between the Calderon family and the fake members is no longer hidden. Before, Calderon swore that he did not recognize the words of these counterfeiters at all, which was more like a satire of himself.

Marca said that there is more evidence on hand. If the Real Madrid president tries to cover up his previous lies with more lies, they are willing to continue to leak the news.

What's even more terrible is that Baruitel, who was abandoned by Calderon, then broke the news on the TV station and counterattacked Calderon, saying that everything he did was instructed by Calderon, and that among the people involved in the fake membership, Calderon's real sister was also included.

The important reason why Barutel turned against the enemy is that the Spanish Criminal Law stipulates that member-based organization meetings will face up to three years in prison for fraud, and he hopes that he can become a tainted witness.

For a moment, everything was settled.

All the ridiculous things Calderon and Mijatovic did at Real Madrid have been revealed.

One by one, one by one, it was like a farce.

Misappropriation of public funds, private commissions, fraud at the membership meeting, threatening member representatives...

All the guilt has been obvious!

Even the Ass, who has always supported Calderon, completely gave up on him this time.

The Real Madrid president finally saw the situation clearly and he was irreversible.

On the evening of the fifteenth, Calderon held a secret meeting with several confidants at home, and on the morning of the sixteenth, he held a press conference at the Bernabeu Stadium.

Calderon said he decided to resign as Real Madrid chairman due to distrust of fans and members in the board of directors he led.

He admitted that he had made a mistake, but did not do anything illegally, and was worthy of his conscience and his hands were clean.

This was his attempt to defend himself, but the media at the scene was booing, and obviously no one believed any of the words he said, even a word.

The Real Madrid president came down from the chairman position in a very disgraceful manner, and the current vice chairman Vicente Boruda temporarily serves as acting chairman.

After the news came out, the whole of Madrid cheered.

But at the same time, Milan Sports News broke the news that after Calderon stepped down, former Real Madrid chairman Florentino Perez will return to the Bernabeu, and this time he will reorganize the second phase of the Galaxy Battleship to bring more superstars to Real Madrid.

Among them is Chinese superstar Yang Yang, who just won the second World Footballer in Zurich.

This news quickly aroused cheers from fans in Spain, especially Real Madrid.
