With the media block-out put in place by Real Madrid, rumours of increased agitation between http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Iker-Casillas-c16815 and Jose Mourinho surfaced in Spanish press.
Controversy and Jose Mourinho go hand in hand, a fact that came back to life as Real Madrid imposed a media blackout after their back-to-back 1-1 La Liga stalemates against Malaga and Villarreal.
The Spanish giants returned to winning ways with the 5-1 thrashing of struggling Real Sociedad at the Santiago Bernabeu and matched it up with an away 0-3 victory over APOEL Nicosia in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cyprus-c2881.
However, the recent headlines related with Los Blancos have been of a bust-up between Iker Casillas and the Special One, with the latter thinking of selling the Madridista favourite in the upcoming summer transfer window.
Ahead of Real Madrid’s La Liga fixture with Osasuna, Mourinho rejected these notions of rift and stated that he enjoys a normal relationship with his first team captain and the undisputed number 1 goalkeeper.
"There is no story with Casillas," the Special One told reporters ahead of the match at Pamplona. "I have no problems with him."
Mourinho also took out time to talk about rumours linking him with a move away to Manchester City in the future as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mancini-c23323 finds it difficult to manage their star power he has at the Eastland club.
The Special One was dismissive of the reports and pointed towards the two years remaining on his contract to state his allegiance to Real Madrid.
The Portuguese manager added that he has not said anything about moving away from the Santiago Bernabeu and does not understand the need to talk about the subject at this point in the season.
"I have no need to talk about my continuity," the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 boss said. "I have two years left on my contract and have never said I will not stay."
Real Madrid enjoy pole position in La Liga points table with 9 league games remaining. Mourinho’s men claim a 6-point advantage over second placed and reigning Spanish champions, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604.
The final fixture run-in is set to have an impact on deciding the winner as Los Blancos have a match to play at the Camp Nou.
