As reported by the journalist Diego Mengual of Central Defense, Florentino Pérez has closed and agreed to the coach who will replace Carlo Ancelotti the next season. We are talking about Jose Mourinho.
The journalist confirmed that if the decision of the real Madrid is to do without the Italian coach at the end of the season, it would be the Portuguese who would take the reins of the club for next season and begin the reconstruction of a project. His arrival would be imminent, despite the fact that the Portuguese has a contract with AS Roma until the summer of 2024.
BOMB: José Mourinho, chosen by Florentino to replace Ancelotti
The continuity of Carlo Ancelotti is in doubt because the team’s results have been very bad, far from fighting for LaLiga and they have lost the last three classics against FC Barcelona in all national competitions. The situation is increasingly complicated for the Italian, despite the fact that he is not the only one to blame for the team’s bad moment.
José Mourinho would be the name that Florentino Pérez would like the most because he has character and the ability to rebuild a team capable of dominating European football. The Portuguese would return to the Santiago Bernabéu, where he directed from the summer of 2010 to the summer of 2013 and managed to put together a team capable of competing against one of the best FC Barcelona in history. His relationship with Florentino Pérez did not end in the best way, but everything seems to indicate that both parties would agree to unite their paths to start the new project.
Other names that have sounded strong to come to Real Madrid to replace Carlo Ancelotti in the summer are Thomas Tuchel, Mauricio Pochettino, Xabi Alonso and Raúl González Blanco. They are all different options, but they have the conditions to lead the project. But the name that has convinced the club’s board of directors is José Mourinho.
