Perez, who heralded the 'galactico era' during his previous stint at the helm, said he would present himself for election after Real president Ramon Calderon resigned.

The Real presidential candidate has reportedly promised to appoint Arsenal's Wenger as the Spanish champions' manager, to the frustration of Hill-Wood.

"I think it is laughable. It is disrespectful and very rude," Hill-Wood told the Sunday Mirror.

"I cannot believe that Arsene would go there for all the tea in China. He would be played around like a puppet.

"It cannot be right to talk in such a way about a manager who is under contract at another club."

French boss Wenger, who still has three years to run on his Arsenal deal, has won three Premier League titles and four FA Cups since his appointment in 1996.
