José Mourinho returns from Milan as doubts over Benfica future grow | OneFootball

José Mourinho was seen on Tuesday night at Tires aerodrome after returning by private jet from Milan, with uncertainty around his Benfica future again in focus. Fabrizio Romano reports that Real Madrid already know he would be open to returning if a concrete offer arrives.

He was accompanied by assistant Pedro Machado, declined to answer questions, and headed straight for a waiting vehicle. His silence has fed further speculation.

The trip, authorised by Benfica, was linked to a commercial commitment at an event attended by Italian journalists. Its timing has drawn attention amid growing interest from Spain.

Mourinho is viewed as Florentino Pérez’s preferred option to take charge of Real Madrid next season, though differing opinions persist within the club after his 2010 to 2013 spell.

Other possibilities remain under consideration, including Jurgen Klopp, Mauricio Pochettino, Lionel Scaloni and Didier Deschamps.
