Real Madrid director, Emilio Butragueno, has made claims that the Spanish Giants are more than satisfied with Jose Mourinho’s performance.
Butragueno has stated that the Santiago Bernabeu outfit are unaware of Mourinho’s intent of departing from the club.
The Blanco’s legend refuted all rumours regarding the exit of the club’s manager at the end of the current season’s campaign.
Recently, reports by several media sources across Europe suggested that Jose Mourinho may leave Real Madrid in the summer.
The rumours were escalated when, in a recent press conference, Mourinho admitted that he would want to return to the English Premier League one day. Although the tactician did not specify when he would want to do it, reports suggested
that the 49-year-old may leave as the current season ends.
In addition to this, there were also several reports about a spat between the Portuguese tactician and defender, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sergio-Ramos-c33096. Although the news may have been greatly exaggerated, many believed that the players at the Bernabeu are with
their manager.
Furthermore, the fact that Jose Mourinho’s unsuccessful run against fierce rivals and defending Spanish Champions, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604, was highlighted. Los Blancos have been incapable of securing a victory against the Catalans in most of their
meetings.
The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan boss was even booed by Real Madrid fans and received a great amount of critique following his club’s exit from the Copa del Rey.
However, despite all the suppositions regarding the manager’s future, Butragueno has reassured the fans and supporters that the club is elated with Mourinho’s performance so far.
While talking to Canal Plus, the retired veteran quoted:
"We are not aware [of any truth to rumours regarding Mourinho leaving Real Madrid]. We are very happy with him and I believe he will stay at the club,"
"Every week rumours appear, and as always, they do not affect us."
Los Blancos currently lead the Spanish Primera standings with a seven-point cushion over second-placed Barcelona.
