Jose Mourinho in talks with former club Real Madrid to take up manager role

“The Special One” has been contacted by Real Madrid as they are interested in appointing him as their manager once again.

Madrid’s poor start to the season under current boss Zinedine Zidane seems to have acted as the cause, and the Frenchman is reportedly close to getting replaced.

El Chiriguito TV reports that Real Madrid have reached out to Mourinho to ask whether the Portuguese is interested in a second spell at the Santiago Bernabeu. The 56-year-old Portuguese manager has been out of management since he was axed at Manchester United and has been working as a pundit for Sky Sports.

Los Blancos, meanwhile, are currently placed second in the league table with 18 points from nine matches with five wins, three draws, one defeat and just one point behind leaders Barcelona, which might make it seem that things are, after all, not that bad at the club. However, a closer look at their results, including Champions League matches, will reveal that not everything is as great as it seems initially.

In La Liga, their wins were against Celta Vigo, Levanta, Sevilla, Osasuna and Granada – meanwhile, they also drew against Real Valladolid, Villarreal and Atletico Madrid, before losing to Real Mallorca. In the Champions League, Los Blancos are yet to script a win this season, after having gone down by 3-0 against Paris Saint-Germain before suffering a draw against Club Brugge.

Zinedine Zidane is not really enjoying his time at the Bernabeu and of late, he has also started developing issues with some of the team members. In his second spell in charge – after winning three successive Champions League titles prior to leaving ahead of the 2018-19 season – he has failed to convince upon his return to the Spanish giants.

And according to the report, due to all the above-mentioned reasons, the club’s management apparently believes that it is right to bring back Mourinho, to restore the team back to its winning ways.
