LISBON (PORTUGAL) (ITALPRESS) – The violent argument between Federico Valverde and Aurelien Tchouameni has given the decisive impetus. According to the Portuguese and Madrid press, Real Madrid and Josè Mourinho are increasingly close to a sensational return, strongly desired by both sides. At the “Casa Blanca,” everyone is certain, starting with Florentino Perez: to resolve the out-of-control situation in the Valdebebas dressing room, the charisma and personality of a coach like the “special one” is needed. Among other things, the coach was reportedly informed directly by club sources about the brawl that broke out on Thursday and ended with Valverde being hospitalized. Real Madrid is ready to release the former Inter coach from the final year of his contract that ties him to Benfica, paying the three million euros in his release clause into the coffers of president Rui Costa’s club. In Spain and Portugal, they’re convinced that this will be the case, and this is confirmed by the fact that the Eagles are already looking for a successor. According to “A Bola,” the most likely candidate is Marco Silva, the 48-year-old Portuguese coach who currently manages Fulham but whose contract is expiring and who has an excellent relationship with Benfica’s general manager, Mario Branco.

According to the Spanish press, however, the possibility of Ruben Amorim, the manager sacked by Manchester United, should be considered after the English club bought him from Sporting Lisbon for millions. Another option, proposed by “A Bola,” is that of Brazilian Filipe Luís, who has just finished his spell at Flamengo and would be happy to coach in Europe; he has many admirers in Lisbon.
