Could Jose Mourinho makes shock Real Madrid return?
Jose Mourinho could be in for a shock return to Real Madrid as the Spanish side consider him an option to replace Carlo Ancelotti as head coach.
Ancelotti is expected to leave Madrid at the end of the season to take over as Brazil boss and the Santiago Bernabeu side are looking for his replacement.
According to Mundo Deportivo, Mourinho's name is being floated around the capital club as a preferred candidate to occupy the hot seat. The Portuguese coach is currently in charge of Roma but will likely leave when his contract ends this summer.
Ancelotti appears set to take over at the helm of the Brazil national team once his contract at Madrid expires at the end of the season. Brazilian Football Federation (CBF) president Ednaldo Rodrigues has said that the experienced Italian coach will come in to take Fernando Diniz's place in the summer.
However, Mundo Deportivo's report says that the 64-year-old would accept an offer to extend his Madrid deal should the club make one.
