Real Madrid’s search for a new head coach has taken a notable turn, as reports suggest that players have pushed back against the potential return of Jose Mourinho, signaling internal resistance within the squad.
According to Spanish media reports, members of the Real Madrid squad are not in favor of Mourinho taking charge again.
The players are understood to view his footballing approach and his style of managing the dressing room as misaligned with the current structure of the team.
The reported opposition is said to include a group of players featuring Arda Guler, who are believed to have conveyed their stance directly to club management.
While details remain limited, the reports indicate that this internal feedback has been strong enough to influence ongoing discussions.
With these developments, attention now turns to club president, Florentino Perez, and the board, who are expected to weigh the players’ concerns as they move forward in the selection process. The final decision on the managerial appointment is anticipated in the coming days, as the club works to settle on a direction for the near future.
