Mourinho determined to fix Real Madrid's atmosphere – he's getting all the inside info from the dressing room
While José Mourinho remains in Lisbon, he is already receiving detailed reports about the conflict between Fede Valverde and Aurélien Tchouaméni straight from trusted sources inside Real Madrid’s camp.
Details: According to AS, the Portuguese manager was immediately informed of every aspect of the dispute. He knows the incident began as early as Wednesday and culminated with the Uruguayan’s hospitalization due to a head injury, as well as unprecedented sanctions for both players. The fact that people within the club are sharing such specifics with Mourinho is seen as a clear sign of his possible return to the Santiago Bernabéu next season.
The version of events relayed to José pins Valverde as the main culprit, blaming his persistent accusations against Tchouaméni for leaking information. Furthermore, Mourinho was told about Álvaro Arbeloa’s inexperience, which prevented him from stepping in and stopping the on-field scuffle in time.
Within Real Madrid, the Portuguese tactician is viewed as the ideal candidate to restore order in a dressing room now plagued by disarray and lacking clear leaders.
Mourinho himself feels ready to step in, repair the situation, and steer the team back to a competitive path after a disastrous season.
Reminder: Parents of Real Madrid stars are complaining to Pérez about the coach’s decisions.
