With the triumph over Al Hilal (5-3) in the final of the FIFA Club World Cup in Rabat, Real Madrid won the 100th trophy in the club’s history. Of that number, almost a third are international (29), which makes the Royal Club the incomparable European leader in this category, ahead of AC Milan with 18 cups.Real are proud of its eighth world crown, but since last night, Florentino Perez has also been particularly proud on a personal level, because he succeeded in what was unthinkable ten years ago – to reach Santiago Bernabeu, the ‘founder’ of Real Madrid as the biggest club in the world, in terms of trophies.The latest is Perez’s 31st cup in two terms at the head of the Madridian club. Santiago Bernabeu has just as many in its collection, with Real Madrid also taking into account two titles from the unofficial tournament of the Small World Championship held in Venezuela in the period 1952 – 1975. It is practically the forerunner of the Intercontinental Cup…##NAJAVA_MECA_7014747##In addition, the man whose name Los Blancos’ stadium is named after won 16 Spanish league titles during his reign, was European champion six times, lifted the Spanish Copa del Rey and the aforementioned Intercontinental Cup as many times. A total of 31 trophies in 35 years at the head of the club.With last year’s European title, Florentino Perez tied with the Bernabeu for the number of most important crowns – six. He proudly participated in winning five world club championships, six Spanish championship titles, five European Super Cups, two COpa del Rey’s, six Spanish Super Cups and one Intercontinental Cup.Bernabeu was deprived of the European Super Cup, during most of his presidency there was no such competition, but it should also be underlined that Perez has been in office for 15 years less.Real Madrid tonight won — • 8th Club World Cup title. • 100th title in history. • 31 titles under Florentino Pérez. pic.twitter.com/0coBwx48Bg— Madrid Zone (@theMadridZone) February 11, 2023 Also, it should be pointed out that last year, the current first man of Real Madrid overtook a big name of European football when it comes to the number of trophies – Silvio Berlusconi, who counted 28 trophies in three decades in AC Milan.Unreachable (probably for all time) will remain the famous president of FC Porto, Pinto da Costa with 67 important trophies. He has been in that position since 1982.
