José Mourinho’s return to Real Madrid

Dotun Adebayo and Tim Vickery are joined by Spanish football expert and author Miguel Lourenço Pereira to examine one of the biggest stories in European football: José Mourinho’s return to Real Madrid.

Can Mourinho make Kylian Mbappé and Vinícius Jr work together? Why did Vinícius ultimately stay in Madrid rather than pursue a move to Arsenal? And has Real Madrid started to lose the pulling power that once made the world’s best players desperate to wear white?

Miguel explains why Mourinho may have played a key role in convincing Vinícius to stay, how José has changed since his first spell at the Bernabéu, and why this season could define much more than Madrid’s trophy cabinet.

The conversation also turns to Barcelona’s signing of Rodri, whether he is an evolution of Sergio Busquets, Julián Álvarez’s uncertain Atlético Madrid future, the historic Luís Figo transfer and the politics that make Spanish football’s rivalries so different.

Plus, could Real Madrid’s ownership structure itself eventually change if the club struggles to keep financially competing with the Premier League and PSG?

Miguel is the author of The Greatest: Real Madrid's Never Ending Story.
