According to the source, the main reason for Perez’s interest is the situation in the team’s locker room. The president believes that the current cluster of superstars in the squad needs a coach with undisputed authority and tough management methods.
Perez is certain: only Mourinho can handle the egos of footballers and make them work as a single mechanism. The situation looks even more realistic against the background of news from Portugal. Mourinho, who is currently in charge of Lisbon’s Benfica, is not going through the best of times in relations with the club’s management.
Relaño claims that the Portuguese is actually provoking his dismissal by his behavior and public statements. If the Eagles terminate the contract with the coach, the path to Madrid will be open for him.
We will remind you that Jose Mourinho already led Real from 2010 to 2013, winning La Liga, the Spanish Cup and the Super Cup with the team, and was also remembered for the epic confrontation with Pep Guardiola’s Barcelona.
