Real Madrid want Mourinho after Utd sacking and will pay £18m a year (El Pais)

Real Madrid want Mourinho after Utd sacking and will pay £18m a year (El Pais)


Real Madrid want to give Jose Mourinho a route back into football in the summer.





The Spanish giants are looking to replace Santiago Solari, who they only appointed as their head coach last month, when the season comes to a conclusion.

And Diego Torres, who wrote a book on Mourinho's first spell at the Santiago Bernabeu, has reported in newspaper El Pais that Real and president Florentino Perez are keen to bring him back.





They would look to pay him €20million (£18m) annually after increasing an initial offer of €15m (£13.5m). Discussions have taken place since October.

Real are also planning to appoint him on July 1, as that would mean avoiding a €5m (£4.5m) penalty fee to Manchester United.

Mourinho was dismissed as United manager on Tuesday morning after a chastening defeat at Liverpool on the weekend. He left with the club down in sixth, and has since been succeeded by Ole Gunnar Solksjaer on an interim basis.


But Real believe the Portuguese manager is the man to replace Solari.

The former Real B manager has suffered two 3-0 defeats at the hands of Eibar and CSKA Moscow after signing a deal to keep him in the post permanently until 2021.

A survey of Madrid members suggested that re-appointing Mourinho, who managed Real between 2010 and 2013, would be a popular move.

There is a belief that he has the ideal personality and ability to lead a club like Real.

Even Marcelo, who fell out with Mourinho during his spell at Real, has backed him as a manager. 'It is a real pity because he (Mourinho) is a great coach,' he said.

'It is a real shame that he is without a club and it is not my place to say that he should return to Madrid, but I have a lot of appreciation for what he did for me at the club.'

He will be handed a significant transfer budget and influence over transfers.

The real reason behind Ronaldo's split with ex Irina revealed


The truth has emerged about the real reason for Cristiano Ronaldo’s split from Russian beauty Irina Shayk… and it looks like she ditched him.


The couple broke up in 2015 and much has been said about their relationship. According to Italian media II Giornale, Irina revealed the real reason for the break-up.

"A lot has been said and written about our history, but the reality is that Cristiano has betrayed me with dozens of women. This is the reason for our separation", Irina said.
 
Irina Shayk has found love with Hollywood star Bradley Cooper and new girlfriend of Cristiano Ronaldo is named Georgina Rodriguez. 
And today and now these two are together and planning to get married soon 


Allegri goes to Madrid & Zidane replaces him for Juve - Former Juve director

Allegri goes to Madrid & Zidane replaces him for Juve - Former Juve director




Max Allegri is planning to take over at Real Madrid next season, with Zinedine Zidane replacing him at Juventus, claims Luciano Moggi.




This rumour has been doing the rounds for a while, but continues to grow in intensity.

Manchester United sacked Jose Mourinho, prompting reports Zidane was a candidate, but it’s suggested he has already given his word to Juve, where he played from 1996-2001.

Moggi was the director at Juventus when Zidane was playing there and he backed the story when speaking on Italian television 7 Gold this evening.

Allegri confirmed he had turned down a move to Madrid last summer, as he had unfinished business in Turin, specifically another push for the Champions League.

Julen Lopetegui was hired instead and fired after a poor start to the campaign, replaced by Santiago Solari.

De Gea favours new Man United contract over Juventus and PSG transfers (ESPN)

De Gea favours new Man United contract over Juventus and PSG transfers (ESPN)


David De Gea is edging closer to committing his long-term future to Manchester United, sources have told ESPN FC, with the goalkeeper unconvinced by the merits of a move away from Old Trafford to Juventus or Paris Saint-Germain.


United staved off the prospect of the 28-year-old leaving on a free transfer next summer by securing De Gea's services until June 2020 by triggering a one-year option to extend his contract last month.

But the club remain determined to negotiate a new long-term deal with De Gea -- who was ranked at No. 1 among the world's goalkeepers in the 2018 ESPN FC 100 -- that will tie him to United until well into his thirties.

United know of interest from Juventus and Champions League round-of-16 opponents PSG in De Gea, who arrived at Old Trafford in an £18.3 million move from Atletico Madrid in the summer of 2011.

But even before the dismissal of manager Jose Mourinho on Tuesday, the United hierarchy had become aware of De Gea's readiness to consider a new deal worth in the region of £350,000 a week to stay at the club.

De Gea has made no secret in the past of his desire to return to Spain -- his pop star girlfriend Edurne Garcia continues to live in Madrid -- but a proposed move to Real Madrid collapsed in August 2015 due to the Spanish club's failure to complete the necessary paperwork before the transfer deadline.

Madrid have since signed Belgium international Thibaut Courtois from Chelsea and, with Barcelona happy with Germany keeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen, De Gea accepts that his options for a return to his home country are now severely limited.

With United facing a battle to qualify for next season's Champions League, De Gea will need assurances of the club's plans, post-Mourinho, to challenge for the biggest honours before committing to a new contract.

But sources have told ESPN FC that Juventus would be unable to come close to matching United's contract offer and that PSG's interest is now on the wane due to the club's belief that Fra

Jose Mourinho SACKED by Man Utd after poor run to the season

BREAKING: Jose Mourinho SACKED by Man Utd after poor run to the season


Jose Mourinho has officially been sacked by Manchester United following their disappointing start to the season.

The Red Devils were humbled by Liverpool on Sunday as they were beaten 3-1 by their fiercest rivals at Anfield.

And United have decided that result was the final straw and have partied company with the Portuguese.

A club statement read: "Manchester United announces that managerJose Mourinho has left the club with immediate effect.

"The club would like to thank Jose for his work during his time at Manchester United and to wish him success in the future.

"A new caretaker manager will be appointed until the end of the current season, while the club conducts a thorough recruitment process for a new, full-time manager."

Mourinho spent two-and-a-half years in the Old Trafford dugout and won the EFL Cup and the Europa League in the 2016-17 season.

But the defeat at Liverpool left the Red Devils 19 points off their fiercest rivals who currently top the Premier League.

Finishing in the top four is a minimum requirement for United this term and they are already 11 points adrift.

Mourinho was a vocal critic of United's transfer policy after he failed to land any of his prime defensive targets last summer.

He was desperate to sign a big-name centre-half with Toby Alderweireld and Harry Maguire among the names on his shortlist.

And United have now grown tired - pulling the trigger on Mourinho and announcing they will appoint a caretaker boss until the end of the season.
