Almost every day in the Spanish media there are reports about the fate of Madrid's "Real" coach, Portuguese Jose Mourinho, after this season. Most media outlets are convinced that the "mister" will leave the club and move to England, Marca.com presents 10 reasons why this could be true.
1. J. Mourinho failed to make players unconditionally do what he says. One of the reasons for the success of the Portuguese career was his ability to get players to obey. In Madrid, he failed to do so. There were many players who obeyed instructions, but there were also those, such as Iker Casillas and Sergio Ramos, who not only doubted but also were not afraid to express their doubts to the coach. Mou knows that without the support of the players, it is impossible to lead any team.
2. He believes that the club did not meet his needs. Despite having more power than any other team coach, J. Mourinho felt that it was not enough. He is convinced that the club, starting from president Florentino Perez, ignored his most important requests, for example, giving him unlimited control over the team.
3. Unpleasant relations with journalists. The "mister's" entire career is marked by constant confrontations with the media. Criticism does not bother him, he likes communicating with journalists, but he feels that he was not respected in Spain. He is convinced that some of the media want him to leave Madrid.
4. He cannot forget the moments when he was booed at the "Santiago Bernabeu" stadium. Used to being a star and the leader of all the clubs he coached, the Portuguese never fully earned the support of the Real fans.
5. He feels disrespected in Spain. Mourinho has said to Portuguese journalists that "it is hard to be a Portuguese in Spain". He believes that any current or former player or coach seeks their 15 minutes of fame by criticizing him. He is convinced that almost no one appreciated his professional career.
6. His family does not feel well in Spain. Although the "mister," along with his wife and two children, lives in one of the most prestigious areas of Madrid, his family has to endure the coach's popularity. This is especially felt by one of Mourinho's sons, who occasionally faces unpleasant situations while playing football.
7. Negative experience of extending an expired cycle. This happened to Mou in England. After finishing the third season, he wanted to leave but decided to stay for another year. Two months after the start of the season, he terminated his contract and left the club.
8. A club where the walls talk and have eyes. In his three years in Madrid, Mourinho was marked by anxiety that there were infiltrators around him. He is convinced that there are disloyal people among both the club's management and the players leaking information to the press.
9. Extremely high competition and club demands. Like Pep Guardiola last year, Mourinho became a victim of intense competition and club demands. He is leaving because it is incredibly difficult to endure.
10. He feels nostalgia for the Premier League and England. It is true that the "mister" has longed for the Premier League since the first day he left Chelsea. He never hid the fact that his next step after Madrid would be a return to England. It is a country where football is a religion, he himself is considered a star, and he is respected not only by friends but also by opponents.
