Ex-player tips the Special One to thrive again in the Spanish capital despite high expectations from fans and critics.
Ex-player tips the Special One to thrive again in the Spanish capital despite high expectations from fans and critics.
A former Real Madrid midfielder has tipped Jose Mourinho to succeed if he returns as head coach at the Santiago Bernabéu, calling the Portuguese tactician ‘extraordinary’. The details of which ex-player made these comments were not specified in available reports.
Mourinho, known as the ‘Special One’, previously managed Real Madrid and built a reputation for delivering big results and stirring up La Liga rivalries. Reports suggest that his potential return is generating strong reactions in Madrid, with both excitement and pressure mounting over whether he can repeat past glories.
For football fans in Nigeria, Mourinho’s possible comeback is of special interest. Many Super Eagles supporters remember his time at Chelsea and Manchester United, where Nigerian stars like John Obi Mikel flourished under his guidance. A successful spell back in Spain could open fresh doors for African talents aiming for La Liga moves.
Neither Jose Mourinho nor any Real Madrid official had issued a public statement about the reported return at press time. The unnamed former midfielder’s endorsement, however, signals confidence from those who know the club’s demands firsthand.
It remains unclear when an official announcement will come or what terms are being discussed. For now, all eyes are on Madrid as speculation over Mourinho’s next move grows ahead of the new season.

From top strikers to midfield maestros, fans are asking: what’s behind the wave of pink boots this year?
A new trend is catching eyes at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, and it’s not about tactics or VAR — it’s all about the boots. This tournament, players across different teams have been spotted rocking bright pink cleats, sparking conversations from Lagos viewing centres to social media timelines.
However, no official explanation or statement has been provided in available reports about why so many players are opting for pink footwear this year. The source article did not confirm whether it’s linked to a specific boot launch, brand campaign, or a wider movement among footballers. Fans tuning in have noticed the colour popping on screens during matches but details about any particular player leading the trend or endorsement deals remain unreported as at press time.
For Nigerian fans and Super Eagles supporters, fashion and football have always gone hand in hand — from iconic green kits to bold hairstyles on the pitch. This new pink boot wave is another example of how global trends quickly find their way into our football conversations. Some supporters see it as a sign of confidence and flair, while others wonder if there’s a deeper meaning behind it.
Neither the Super Eagles coaching staff nor any international team representatives had issued a comment about the boot choice at press time. Similarly, major sportswear brands are yet to confirm if an official campaign is driving this surge in pink cleats on the world stage.
