Fresh reports indicate that José Mourinho could be heading back to Real Madrid, with club president Florentino Perez already planning significant changes ahead of the new season.
The Portuguese coach is believed to have held positive discussions with the Spanish giants regarding a possible long-term agreement. Real Madrid are reportedly considering Mourinho as the ideal figure to lead the club into a new era after an underwhelming campaign.
The proposed contract could keep Mourinho at the Santiago Bernabéu for the next three years, although the club may wait until the end of the season before making any official announcement.
One of the main priorities during talks has reportedly been rebuilding Madrid’s midfield. The club is still searching for a reliable long-term replacement for experienced stars Toni Kroos and Luka Modrić.
As a result, Manchester City midfielder Rodri has emerged as a major transfer target. Real Madrid reportedly view the Spain international as the perfect addition to restore balance, composure, and leadership in midfield.
Mourinho is said to fully support the move, believing Rodri has the qualities needed to guide the next generation of players at the club. Perez also reportedly admires the midfielder’s mentality and consistency at the highest level.
The possibility of Mourinho returning has already generated mixed reactions among supporters and football figures. While many fans are excited about the idea, others remain uncertain whether it is the right move for the club at this stage.
Despite the debate, Perez appears determined to oversee a major rebuild following a difficult season that left Real Madrid without a major trophy.
Mourinho previously managed Real Madrid from 2010 to 2013, winning several trophies and helping the club compete strongly during one of the toughest periods in Spanish football.
With transfer plans already taking shape, Real Madrid could be preparing for one of the biggest summer shake-ups in European football.
