José Mourinho: “Finishing without any trophies at Real Madrid is not a successful season”

Real Madrid's new coach Jose Mourinho has expressed confidence that the club's star players can work together effectively in the upcoming La Liga season, despite the challenges of balancing attack and defense. Mourinho, who has previously struggled to find harmony between players like Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Junior, and Jude Bellingham, believes the trio of world-class talents can coexist on the pitch with proper management.

Mourinho acknowledged the tactical complexities involved in lining up Mbappe, Vinicius Junior and Jude Bellingham, who have all found success with different coaches in recent years. However, he is determined to make it work for the three players, emphasizing their great quality and the importance of them feeling comfortable when playing together. The coach is confident that with the right support, the team can have a successful season featuring all three stars.

Mourinho also expressed the need for Madrid's stars to contribute defensively this season, warning that if they are pushed back in attack and face difficulties in the final third, the entire team must step up in defense. This unity and commitment to both offensive and defensive play will be crucial for the team's success under Mourinho's guidance.
