Jose Mourinho has reached an agreement to return to Real Madrid on a three-year contract, but the move has been complicated by a significant financial development. While 'the Special One' is set for a sensational second stint at the Bernabeu, the timing of the deal has seen his release clause more than double.

Former Real Madrid head coach Jorge Valdano has come to the defence of Kylian Mbappe, insisting that the Frenchman is being unfairly targeted by critics. The legendary Argentine figure believes the narrative surrounding the forward has become toxic since his move to the Bernabeu.

Luis de la Fuente has officially named his 26-man Spain squad for the 2026 World Cup, with Lamine Yamal one of eight Barcelona stars to make the final cut. The Blaugrana's fortunes contrasted wildly with their arch-rivals, Real Madrid, who do not have a single representative in the final list for the first time ever.

Jose Mourinho is widely expected to be the next man in the Real Madrid dugout, but fans at the Bernabeu are still waiting for the official confirmation of his return. While a verbal agreement is reportedly in place, several institutional and financial hurdles have pushed the announcement back for the Special One's return.
