While Real Madrid’s season ends without much at stake, Álvaro Arbeloa’s future on the bench seems sealed. The Spanish technician will not be on the Merengue bench at the start of the next exercise.
To succeed him, several names of coaches have already been mentioned. That of José Mourinho comes back with insistence. Journalist Fabrizio Romano even believes that the “Special One” is very enthusiastic about this idea. Which the main person concerned denies.
“No one from Real Madrid has contacted me, I can guarantee you that. I can’t say anything more (…) I have one year left on my contract with Benfica and that’s it.”declared the Benfica coach, on the sidelines of the trip to Famalicão.
Mourinho at Real Madrid, doubt is sown
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.
