Enrique Riquelme has reportedly made contact with Raúl González to offer him the role of sporting director as part of his potential presidential project at Real Madrid, according to journalist Látigo Serrano.

The businessman from Alicante is said to view the former club captain as a key figure capable of uniting the fanbase while adding strong sporting credibility to his candidacy. Riquelme has already emerged as one of the possible challengers to Florentino Pérez in the upcoming presidential elections.

Despite the reported approach, Raúl is maintaining the same cautious position he has held throughout his coaching career. The former Castilla coach has consistently avoided publicly aligning himself with institutional or political movements within the club and has preferred to focus solely on his work on the sporting side.

Raúl remains one of the most respected figures in the history of Real Madrid. Since retiring from professional football, he has continued his coaching development within the club and has not taken charge of any other team. His name continues to carry significant influence due to his status, experience, and deep connection with the club.

According to the report, Riquelme believes Raúl would be an ideal figure to strengthen the sporting structure of his project should he officially decide to run in the elections.
