26 years later, José Mourinho is returning to Benfica. Yesterday, in Seixal, the former Fenerbahçe coach was presented in front of a press room filled with journalists. Moreover, the international media did not remain indifferent and closely followed the moment eagerly awaited by Benfica fans.

Yesterday, the European press followed the presentation of the former coach of clubs like Real Madrid, Chelsea, and Manchester United. Starting with Spain, the newspaper Marca highlighted the statements of the Special One, stating that they were 'interesting'.

The BBC, one of the largest television networks and responsible for broadcasting in England, also closely followed the arrival of the Portuguese and wrote the following: "Mourinho is back at Benfica 25 years later". However, the English left a question in the air: "Revered but a risk".

In Italy, the Gazzetta dello Sport highlighted the presentation of José Mourinho and made a point of emphasizing one of the phrases, where he targets his former club: "Fenerbahçe was a mistake, it was not at my level". However, the media attention was not limited to the old continent.

In Brazil, Globoesporte also highlighted one of the phrases uttered by the Portuguese coach, who emphasizes that his personality has changed over the years: "I am less egocentric, I think more about others". It should be noted that José Mourinho signed a contract valid until the end of the 2026/27 season, with the second year being optional.
