Real Madrid dream of José Mourinho’s return

José Mourinho and Real Madrid, it is a history that has marked the last decade. Recognized coach, showman in press conference, the Special One had punctuated the Clasico against the Barça of Pep Guardiola. One with Cristiano Ronaldo, the other with Lionel Messi. Above all, Mourinho had managed the feat of snatching a Liga from one of the best teams in history by producing an offensive and pleasant to watch football. What inevitably marks forever the hearts of Real Madrid fans even if he had left the club after disappointing results (he had been replaced by Ancelotti).

Since then, the Portuguese coach has recovered with Roma. Having arrived in Italy in 2021, José Mourinho managed to get back on track a team that was slowly starting to regress at the national level. Even better, he managed to snatch a European Cup by winning the first edition of the Europa Conference League (C4) and brought the club to the Europa League final the following year. Very interesting performances that allowed him to regain a certain rating on the market. Because this summer, it has been the subject of many covetousness, from PSG to Saudi Arabia in particular.

But in spite of pronounced interests, JM had chosen to remain faithful to Roma. For how long? Indeed, according to information from Mundo Deportivo, the former coach of Manchester United should not extend his contract which expires in June 2024. And its contractual situation is of great interest to Real Madrid, which is already looking for a replacement for Carlo Ancelotti. The idea of a return of the Special One pleases internally and since this nascent rumor, several Madrid leaders are fervently campaigning for.

According to the Spanish media, Real Madrid should decide quickly whether or not it wants to bring back Mourinho while Xabi Alonso and Zinédine Zidane are also mentioned. For his part, José Mourinho is also open to a return to a club that has scored. According to information from the Italian press and Corriere Dello Sport, only Real Madrid can prevent the Portuguese technician from yielding to the incessant calls of Saudi Arabia who offers him an XXL contract. Because if Madrid comes with an offer, Mourinho will not think long to accept.
