The return of José Mourinho to the Real Madrid bench is now a reality. The Portuguese coach will land this afternoon in the capital to begin preparing for next season and will be officially presented tomorrow.

Mourinho thus begins a second spell at the helm of the white team, after his incorporation was finalized through the payment of his release clause to Benfica, in an operation of 15 million euros that marks the beginning of a new sporting project at the club.

The coach arrives with a defined roadmap and clear requests to strengthen the squad. Among his priorities are the incorporation of a top-level center-back and a starting left-back, in a planning that he is already working on with the sports management.

His arrival also implies changes in the club's organizational chart, with the departure of Álvaro Arbeloa, who will not continue in the project after the end of the season. With this move, Real Madrid opens a new stage marked by the return of a coach already known at the Santiago Bernabéu.
