Mourinho Demands Clarity Before Real Madrid Reunion
Jose Mourinho confirmed contact with Real Madrid but said he will only return if the club’s expectations align with what he can deliver. He noted talks with Florentino Pérez haven’t begun yet, though there are ongoing contacts between Real and his agent Jorge Mendes, with discussions expected to continue next week. Benfica’s buyout clause of about $3.5 million expires on May 26, after which he would be free to move if terms are right. Álvaro Arbeloa issued public support, saying he’d be happy to see Mourinho back if he’s the manager next season.
