Big changes are expected at Real Madrid before the new season. According to Cope, the 'Royal Club' is on the verge of bringing back former head coach José Mourinho to Madrid.
According to the source, the appointment of the Portuguese specialist is almost a done deal. Real Madrid's management is expected to officially announce Mourinho's return after the season concludes.
The 'Los Blancos' final match of the current season will take place on May 24 against Athletic. After that, the club may openly announce the new head coach. The Madrid side has already lost the chance to win the La Liga title. In the last round, the team lost 0:2 to Barcelona, officially securing the Catalan side's championship with three rounds remaining.
José Mourinho is expected to replace Álvaro Arbeloa, who has been working at Real Madrid since January. Although Arbeloa took over the team during a difficult period, the risk of finishing the season without trophies seems to have prompted the club's management to make drastic decisions.
Currently, Mourinho is working at Benfica. If he returns to Real Madrid, the Madrid club will have to pay Benfica a compensation fee of approximately 6 million euros to part ways with the Portuguese coach.
The name Mourinho is well-known to Real Madrid fans. He has managed the Madrid side before and is remembered as one of the coaches who instilled a strong character, strict discipline, and an environment of intense competition at the club. His return could mark the beginning of a new era for Real Madrid.
The main reason for this decision is not just the results. Restoring stability, internal atmosphere, order, and character in big games has become an important task for the club. Mourinho is known for his toughness and influential management style in such situations.
Of course, the return of the Portuguese specialist can be assessed in different ways. Some believe he will bring strong spirit and order to Real Madrid. Others question how well his style fits the current generation of players. But one thing is certain: if Mourinho returns, it will not be quiet in Madrid; a major movement will begin.
This season has been a tough lesson for Real Madrid. Now, the club's management aims to rebuild the team through a new head coach, compete for trophies, and provide a worthy response to their eternal rival, Barcelona. Mourinho seems ready to accept this challenge.
