Real Madrid set to appoint Jose Mourinho as manager

Real Madrid have concluded plans to appoint Jose Mourinho as the new manager of the club.

Mourinho, 63, will return to the club he called home from 2010 to 2013 next season, putting an end to his time with Benfica.

Football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano disclosed on Monday that the Portuguese manager will sign a two-year deal at Real Madrid.

Romano wrote on X: “José Mourinho back to Real Madrid, HERE WE GO! 💣🤍

“All terms have been verbally agreed between José Mourinho and Real Madrid, waiting to sign all documents.

“Plan for initial two year deal, JM to travel to Madrid after Real-Bilbao game.

“The Special One is back.”

Chelsea appoint Xabi Alonso as manager on four-year deal

Mourinho replaces Alvaro Arbeloa, who stepped in for Xabi Alonso in January.

Arbeloa has failed to impress Florentino Perez and the Real Madrid board since taking over, managing 15 wins, two draws, and eight defeats.

Los Blancos suffered the ultimate humiliation last weekend, losing 2-0 to Barcelona – a result which saw their main rivals clinch the LaLiga title.

Perez is hopeful that the return of Mourinho will help to bring the ultimate success back to the Bernabeu.

The Portuguese boss won the LaLiga title, the Copa del Rey, and the Supercopa de España during his first spell in Madrid.

He has been in charge of Benfica since September and is yet to lose a league match.
