A legendary comeback is set to unfold at Real Madrid. The club has opted for a familiar face to take the reins, choosing to bring back former manager José Mourinho instead of promoting Álvaro Arbeloa.
According to insider Fabrizio Romano, José Mourinho’s transition from Benfica to Real Madrid is confirmed, with his signature expected shortly. The two parties have reached a verbal agreement, and Mourinho will officially sign a two-year contract.
To facilitate the managerial change, Real Madrid is expected to pay approximately €7 million to terminate the current coach’s contract early. This figure is regarded as substantial within the context of managerial transfers.
