Jose Mourinho has found himself at the centre of a major controversy after appearing in a video released by Florentino Perez's re-election campaign at Real Madrid. Benfica reacted angrily to the footage, but 'The Special One' reportedly insisted he never recorded it, claiming the images were generated using artificial intelligence.

Marco Silva is officially leaving Fulham this summer, paving the way for a sensational switch to Benfica. The Portuguese manager departs after five successful seasons to succeed Jose Mourinho. With the 'Special One' heading back to crisis-hit Real Madrid, Silva prepares to take over in Lisbon despite receiving a lucrative £8 million-a-year offer to remain at Craven Cottage.

Fulham manager Marco Silva is on the verge of leaving Craven Cottage to join Benfica as the direct successor to Jose Mourinho. The Portuguese tactician is close to an agreement with the Lisbon heavyweights, who have launched a lucrative raid on the Premier League to secure their prime managerial target ahead of the upcoming campaign.

Real Madrid's pursuit of Jose Mourinho has become significantly more expensive after a key release clause in his Benfica contract expired. The Spanish giants had the opportunity to secure the Portuguese coach for around €6 million, but administrative delays linked to the club's presidential election mean the final cost could now rise to €15m.
