Florentino Pérez has had to deal with all kinds of situations, but it had been many years since he faced something like this. Despite having a team full of renowned stars, Real Madrid haven't achieved anything relevant this year. The signings haven't quite fit in and everything suggests there will be major changes this summer transfer window.
Real Madrid are in a rebuilding phase and all the talents joining now can mark a turning point. The president has gotten to work and his mission is to return the club to the top. There was a signing that was practically finalized, but everything fell apart at the last moment.
Florentino Pérez's Real Madrid
Real Madrid is a club that is used to winning and they've shown it over the past few years; during all these years, they've won relevant European titles. Unfortunately for the Madridists, this year hasn't been like that and they've had to watch their eternal rival, Barça, lift many trophies.
Determined to turn the situation around, Florentino Pérez has started to secure top-level reinforcements and to force some important departures. The president is one of the best in the world at his job and he has shown it on many occasions. This time, he had a great talent from Ajax in his hands, just 17 years old, but everything vanished.
According to several sources, the footballer we're talking about didn't convince in the medical tests; one of the last steps before signing. Curiously, the Ajax footballer had to return to his club and lost the chance to sign for Real Madrid. The prodigy in question is named Abdellah Ouazane and is on his club's U17 team.
Abdellah Ouazane, the failed signing
Abdellah Ouazane has given a lot to talk about in the Dutch team and part of the fans see in him a part of the club's future. The midfielder has caught the attention of several of the biggest teams in Europe. Unfortunately, it seems that Real Madrid aren't satisfied with the results obtained in the medical tests.
Florentino Pérez has canceled the signing and will have to keep looking. We'll have to wait to find out what caused the midfielder's signing to fall through.
