Spanish source El Mundo Deportivo have stated today that Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho will leave the Bernabeu and take over at the Etihad Stadium this summer.
Not only do they proclaim this to be a ‘done deal’ they also go as far as to state that the date for the switch will be June 30th, which is a very exact prediction.
Such a move would be something of a shock, not least as Roberto Mancini is of course still in place at Man City and shows no sign of being axed. However if the Italian fails to secure the Premier League this season then perhaps he will be sacked though such a move could be considered harsh even though the club’s owners have shelled out a huge sum assembling a squad that they may feel should be able to secure major honours.
Jose Mourinho has come under fire from some sections of the Real Madrid fanbase over his behaviour and indeed the Portuguese manager has also reportedly seen his relationship with club officials and players deteriorate in recent months, though such reports have been dismissed as mere speculation and clearly any suggestion of a breakdown in relationship between the boss and his players has not prevented his side from marching towards major triumphs.
Real Madrid are well placed to reach the Champions League semi-finals having defeated Cypriot side Apoel Nicosia 3-0 in the away leg of their Quarter Final and despite a shaky few weeks of domestic action Los Blancos are still six points clear at the top of La Liga.
