      <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;When Florentino Pérez declared Tuesday in a press conference that Real Madrid would be submitting a wide-ranging report to UEFA to denounce alleged refereeing corruption tied to Barcelona’s €8.4m in payments to referees’ chief José María Enríquez Negreira over 17 years, he &lt;a href="https://en.as.com/soccer/florentino-perez-emergency-press-conference-live-updates-real-madrid-president-speaks-to-the-media-f202605-d/" target="_blank" rel="" title="https://en.as.com/soccer/florentino-perez-emergency-press-conference-live-updates-real-madrid-president-speaks-to-the-media-f202605-d/"&gt;added a line&lt;/a&gt; that echoed loudly across Spain’s soccer divide: “I’ve won seven Champions Leagues and only seven LaLiga titles.&lt;b&gt; It&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;could have been 14, but they were stolen from me&lt;/b&gt;.” Madrid head coach Álvaro Arbeloa, when asked whether he agreed with Pérez, &lt;a href="https://www.realmadrid.com/en-US/news/football/first-team/press-conference/arbeloa-13-05-2026" target="_blank" rel="" title="https://www.realmadrid.com/en-US/news/football/first-team/press-conference/arbeloa-13-05-2026"&gt;didn’t hesitate&lt;/a&gt;: “Yes, of course. We all know what has happened for more than 20 years.” Those seven LaLiga campaigns referenced by both the club president and the Madrid coach - seasons in which Los Blancos lost the title by narrow margins ranging from one to four points - have been compiled and documented by the club. Here is a detailed look at each of them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://en.as.com/soccer/these-are-the-seven-laliga-titles-florentino-perez-says-were-stolen-from-real-madrid-f202605-n/" target="_blank"&gt;Seguir leyendo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

      <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;Among the many issues Florentino Pérez addressed during his press conference on Tuesday at Valdebebas, &lt;b&gt;much of his attention was focused on the Negreira Case&lt;/b&gt;, which he described as “&lt;b&gt;the biggest scandal in history&lt;/b&gt;.” He claimed that referees had received money from Barcelona, to the point that the Catalan club has reportedly considered taking legal action. The &lt;b&gt;Real Madrid president also made one thing clear: he trusts UEFA to act and punish Barcelona over the continuous payment of €8.4 million ($9.1 million) &lt;/b&gt;across 17 years to the former vice-president of Spain’s refereeing committee.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://en.as.com/soccer/real-madrid-are-convinced-that-uefa-will-punish-barcelona-for-negreira-f202605-n/" target="_blank"&gt;Seguir leyendo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="https://img.asmedia.epimg.net/resizer/v2/GM7HNHVLKZA53DZCMYPPFIFHBE.jpg?auth=4944ebb8e2e7cc19437cfab9c91ef270f89a4dc4f709c148e32c2ae42dc33866" width="1400" height="524" alt="Florentino Pérez, president of Real Madrid, and Aleksander Ceferin, his counterpart at UEFA."&gt;&lt;/img&gt;</content:encoded>
