According to Italian journalist Nicolò Schira, Portuguese coach José Mourinho has reached a personal agreement with Real Madrid for a contract that would keep him at the Santiago Bernabéu until 2028.
The report states that the Madrid club is now ready to pay Benfica's release clause to bring "The Special One" back to the Spanish capital.
This return would be one of the most sensational moves in European football, as Mourinho had previously managed the Madrid team from 2010 to 2013, a period in which he won the La Liga title, the Copa del Rey and the Spanish Super Cup.
Mourinho's name has often been linked with spectacular comebacks during his career, but a return to Real Madrid would once again bring a charismatic and exceptionally experienced figure to the Los Blancos bench.
