According to the reports, Mourinho has agreed to keep renowned fitness coach Antonio Pintus as part of his technical staff, complying with a direct request from club president Florentino Pérez. The decision reflects the club’s desire to preserve key elements of the current sporting structure while preparing for a new era under the Portuguese tactician.
Sources also indicate that Mourinho is expected to sign a two-year contract, with an automatic extension clause for a third season if he succeeds in leading the club to the La Liga title.
In addition, the former Real Madrid coach reportedly informed Benfica president Rui Costa of his decision to reject a renewal offer, paving the way for his anticipated return to the Spanish capital.
The official announcement is expected to come shortly after Pérez is reappointed as club president on May 24, with Mourinho set to begin his duties in early June and receive full authority over the club’s sporting project.
If confirmed, Mourinho’s return could mark the beginning of a major transformation at Real Madrid, both tactically and structurally, as the Portuguese manager is widely known for his strong leadership, disciplined approach, and ability to reshape elite squads.
