  • Real Madrid supremo Florentino Perez is reportedly disappointed with Mourinho's behaviour this past year and is now ready for a change. Carlo Ancelotti is the favourite to take over at the Spanish giants.



    "After conversations with our coach Jose Mourinho, we have decided to end our relationship at the end of this season," Perez said. "Both the club and the coach think this is the right moment to end the relationship. In the name of all the board I want to thank Mourinho for his work over these three years, he has helped us make an important sporting improvement. We wish him success in the next stage of his career."
