Perez avoids questions about CR7 as he begins his fifth term as Real president

Tonight marks a perhaps bittersweet day for Real Madrid president Florentino Perez, who begins his fifth terms in charge of the Bernabeu club. It was an uncontested return for the Madrid boss, who avoided questions regarding Real star Cristiano Ronaldo. CR7 is currently in Russia with his Portugal teammates playing in the Confederations Cup, and he has drawn attention in the last couple days with his potential threat to leave Madrid after tax accusations. For Perez, who is expected to face more questions in the coming days, it will be a difficult task to deflect enquries regarding their most prolific player.
