Mourinho: “No one from Real Madrid has spoken to me, there is nothing”

The Benfica coach, the Portuguese José Mourinho, closed the door on the rumors that placed him back at Real Madrid for next season and stated that no one from the white club “has spoken” with him, so there is “nothing”, while he prepares the end of the Portuguese league.

“No, no one from Real Madrid has spoken to me, I can assure you. I have been in football for too many years and we are used to these things, but nothing from Real Madrid,” he said this Friday at a press conference before their match on Matchday 32 of the League.

‘Mou’ has settled for the moment that option of him returning to Madrid, a bench occupied by Álvaro Arbeloa although with almost no options to save the season, with the League in the hands of FC Barcelona. “Nothing. I can’t say anything more. I already told your teammate that, with respect to Real Madrid, nothing, and with respect to Benfica, you already know the situation. I have one year left on my contract with Benfica, and that’s all,” he said about his future.

The Portuguese coach stated that they will go for the three remaining games, with the obligation not to miss second place to be in the Champions League and still have the option of winning the championship. “My time of ceremonies is over. I just do what I have to do, including my presentation at Benfica, which was not really a ceremony, it was a very quick presentation and then I went straight to work, I didn’t even go to the Estádio da Luz,” he said.

“I am no longer interested in those things, I no longer worry about them, I worry about giving my best, more for the club and the players than for myself. Now it is Famalicao, then Braga and then Estoril, and then I will continue working a little more and only then will the holidays come,” he concluded.
