Mourinho’s two conditions to return to Real Madrid as talks reach advanced stage

Real Madrid find themselves in a dire situation after being battered by FC Barcelona last night, which meant the Catalans were crowned La Liga champions after winning El Clasico at the Spotify Camp Nou.

Changes are incoming within the club, with Florentino Perez looking to shake things up after two seasons with a major trophy and the utter turmoil in the dressing room.

Jose Mourinho, to that end, has emerged as the frontrunner to become the next Real Madrid manager, replacing Alvaro Arbeloa, who will vacate his post at the end of the season.

Talks advanced between Perez and Jorge Mendes

Providing an update on the situation, journalist Ben Jacobs reports that talks are now at an advanced stage between Perez and Mourinho’s agent, Jorge Mendes.

This is despite the current SL Benfica head coach publicly denying that he has had any approach from Real Madrid so far.

Perez is the driving force behind the search for a new manager and sees Mourinho as the ideal candidate as he hopes to bring in a cultural shift at Real Madrid.

Talks are advanced between the two camps and more meetings are scheduled this week to try and finalise the Portuguese’s homecoming.
