Jose Mourinho faces two early challenges as Real Madrid's new season commences, with the role of Aurelien Tchouameni and squad size emerging as key concerns. The Portuguese coach initially intended a smaller 22-player squad, but now has 25-26 players, necessitating effective squad management. Tchouameni and Federico Valverde are the two midfielders vying for a starting role following a strong start for Valverde.

Mourinho must navigate these challenges while maintaining team unity and ensuring his players are both fit and motivated.
