Real Madrid History

Real Madrid, established in 1902 as Madrid Football Club, received the royal title “Real” from King Alfonso XIII in 1920. The club’s early dominance in European football began in the 1950s, winning five consecutive European Cups from 1956 to 1960, with legends like Alfredo Di Stéfano and Ferenc Puskás leading the charge.

Throughout the 20th century, Real Madrid solidified its status as a powerhouse in Spanish football, consistently clinching La Liga titles and attracting top talents. The early 2000s ushered in the “Galácticos” era, featuring stars like Zinedine Zidane, Luís Figo, Ronaldo Nazário, and David Beckham. Under the leadership of presidents like Florentino Pérez and managers like Carlo Ancelotti, the club has continued to build upon its illustrious history.

In recent years, Real Madrid has maintained its competitive edge, blending seasoned veterans with emerging talents. With a new era under Xabi Alonso set to commence, Los Blancos will be looking to further establish themselves as the team to beat in world football.
