Real Madrid have just released a statement saying that at the end of the season, Jose Mourinho will be gone. He's leaving with 3 years still left on his contract. According from the information currently out, both Mourinho and Real Madrid reached a mutual agreement deal. What the deal is no one knows... Yet. I'm sure in the near future more info will be released. What we do know is that one of the candidates currently in Madrid's radar is Carlos Ancelotti, who's currently managing Paris St. Germain. Another rumour that looks highly possible is Mourinho's return to Chelsea.
Mourinho who's 50, had joined Madrid after winning the Champion's League with Inter Milan back in 2010. For 3 years he was managing Madrid, with not a whole lot of silverware to show for it. In those 3 years he won 1 League title, 1 King's Cup, and 1 Super Cup. As well as 3 semi-final appearances in the Champion's League. Which for most soccer fan's that sounds like great accomplishments, but for a team with the pedigree and history of Real Madrid that's just not good enough.
So adios Mourinho, thank you for some great memories, as well as some of the most entertaining "Clasicos" that I have ever seen. Whether it's Chelsea or any other team, I'll be sure to keep an eye on "the Special One".
