After reaching a complete verbal agreement to assume leadership at the Bernabeu, José Mourinho is poised for an incredible comeback to Real Madrid.
On Monday, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano announced the news on 𝕏, writing: “BREAKING: José Mourinho returning to Real Madrid, HERE WE GO!
José Mourinho and Real Madrid have verbally agreed on all conditions; all paperwork needs to be signed.
“After the Real-Bilbao match, JM will travel to Madrid as part of the original two-year contract.
“The Special One has returned.”
After a difficult season for Los Blancos, Mourinho will take over for Alvaro Arbeloa at the end of the current campaign and is anticipated to spearhead a significant reconstruction.
According to reports in Spain, Florentino Perez, the club president, is certain that he is the only applicant who can bring harmony back to a broken dressing room, therefore his appointment is now just a matter of time.
Before the agreement is finalized, a few formalities must be completed. The Portuguese coach’s €3 million release clause in his Benfica contract must be activated by Real Madrid, although both parties are eager to finish the procedure as soon as possible in order to avoid the summer transfer window.
It is said that the 63-year-old insisted on having a significant say in transfer strategy. He is apparently eyeing Juventus winger Kenan Yildiz, and departures are anticipated as part of the squad reorganization. Gonzalo Garcia and Dani Ceballos are two players that are probably going to move on.
Mourinho has openly denied any conversations with Madrid, stating that he is still focused on Benfica’s season-ending game. But behind the scenes, things are moving more quickly in the direction of his return.
Perez has already supported the action. He asserted on Wednesday that “he was here before and he raised our level.”
From 2010 to 2013, Mourinho oversaw Real Madrid, which won the La Liga championship in 2011–12. Chelsea, Manchester United, Tottenham, Roma, Fenerbahce, and Benfica are among the teams he has coached since then.
