Thirteen years after leaving Real Madrid, José Mourinho will certainly make his return. Benfica confirmed his departure for the Merengue club in exchange for a check for fifteen million euros.
In a press release, the Portuguese club specifies that this transfer is conditional on the re-election of Florentino Pérez as president on Sunday. “In this case, the hiring will be done for an amount of €15,000,000, corresponding to the termination clause of the current employment contract”indicates the Lisbon formation.
After the delicate season experienced by Real Madrid, Florentino Pérez himself called early elections. Since 2009, he has been systematically re-elected without opposition. Even if Enrique Riquelme, a Spanish entrepreneur in renewable energies, plans to take his place, he will most likely be re-elected. And will therefore find the “Special One”.
Mourinho, imminent return to Real Madrid
José Mourinho was the coach of Real Madrid between 2010 and 2013. With the Spanish club, he expanded his record by winning a La Liga (2012), two Spanish Cups (2011, 2013) and a Spanish Super Cup (2012).
On the other hand, the man, now 63 years old, did not manage to win the Champions League during his time at the “Casa Blanca”. At the time, it had failed at the semi-final stage every year, against FC Barcelona in 2011, Bayern Munich in 2012 and Borussia Dortmund in 2013.
