Before Famalicão-Benfica, José Mourinho's future debated again | OneFootball

The future of José Mourinho has, in recent weeks, been one of the most talked-about topics in European football. With several reports pointing to Real Madrid’s strong desire to sign the Special One, more recent information indicates that the coach from Setúbal will, very soon, have a meeting to discuss a contract renewal with Benfica.

According to rumors coming out of Spain, namely from the newspaper AS, Benfica has scheduled a meeting with José Mourinho for next week and, according to the same source, the main topic will be the Special One’s renewal with the Eagles, which would make Real Madrid’s task even more complicated.

“Mourinho will, naturally, have some time to think about the proposal.
