Mourinho has re-emerged as a candidate to return to Real Madrid as the club reviews coaching options. According to Glorioso 1904, his name is being discussed internally and has gained traction under Florentino Pérez during a period of reflection.
The continuation of Álvaro Arbeloa is said to be increasingly unlikely, with a meeting between the coach and the hierarchy expected in the coming days. His cycle appears close to ending, which would clear the way for a new appointment.
Mourinho is viewed as a credible option given his experience, his bond with the club and with the president. He also retains support among fans, particularly after recent, less successful stints with other managers.
The interest is described as mutual, but there are no negotiations at this stage. The process remains at an early phase, with Madrid keen to move quickly.
Pérez continues to assess alternatives including Zidane, Klopp and Pochettino, while Mourinho remains a strong possibility.
