The amount Real Madrid earned from their pre-season friendly against Schalke – report

Real Madrid earned a net profit of €1.5 million from their pre-season friendly against Schalke, according to recent reports. This significant financial gain comes after most of the first-team stars returned late for the new campaign. The friendly was held at the VELTINS-Arena, where Espi scored in Real Madrid's 3-0 victory. With no expenses on the club's end, as costs like travel and accommodations were covered by the hosts, the entirety of the €1.5 million represented a profit for Real Madrid.

As the team prepares for the start of the new season, Mourinho's emphasis on fitness and cohesive work has shown positive results thus far. The defensive improvements and ruthless attacking style, along with the successful integration of new signings, have contributed to the overall positive outlook for the upcoming season.
