Florentino Pérez and several members of the Board of Directors welcomed him, who returned from Russia today, to the Santiago Bernabéu.
Following the signing of the contract, Lopetegui was presented with a replica of the stadium, a watch and a shirt displaying his name.
Real Madrid president Florentino Perez said “nothing justifies” Spain sacking Lopetegui on the eve of the World Cup in response to the La Liga club naming him as their new boss.
