José Mourinho admitted this Friday that the coming days could be decisive for his future at Benfica, but assured that, for now, he remains fully focused on the match against Estoril Praia. At the pre-match press conference ahead of the game in Amoreira, the Portuguese coach confirmed that he had received a formal offer from the Eagles, although he postponed any decision until after the end of the season.
“I’ve already said that I speak with president Rui Costa practically every day. But I’ve also already said, because I have nothing to hide, and I think Benfica doesn’t want to hide anything either, that on Wednesday I received Benfica’s official written offer. They wanted to send it to me and I said that I didn’t want anything now. On Sunday, yes. And with Real Madrid, I haven’t even had any contact. Neither with the president nor with any important person in the structure,” he explained.
The 'Special One' also acknowledged that next week should bring important developments regarding the future: “It will be important for me, for my future and also for Benfica. When the season ends, Benfica have to start thinking about the next one. But, because of the contract and the agreement I signed when I arrived, we have this window of a few days to see what happens and to make a decision”.
