Mourinho named Real
coach
Real Madrid will present Jose Mourinho
as the new manager of the Spanish club on Monday.
Real made the announcement on Friday, two days after confirming
they had sacked coach Manuel Pellegrini.
It is understood Inter were originally demanding a €16m (£13.6m)
severance fee to allow Mourinho
to leave his post at the San Siro two years early.
But it is understood that Real president Florentino Perez
flew to Milan
on Friday, where he agreed an €8million (£6.8m) deal with Inter
chief Massimo Moratti to bring the Portuguese boss to the
Bernabeu.
"The president Massimo Moratti and Florentino Perez met this
afternoon," said a statement on Inter's official
website.
"In light of the excellent and constructive relations of
friendship that exist between the two clubs, an agreement was
reached on the contractual clause that binds Jose Mourinho to FC
Internazionale.
"The time and the manner by which the agreement will be honoured
has been
defined.
"Massimo Moratti thanks Florentino Perez for his willingness to
join him in
Milan and for his courtesy, which confirms, once again, the
strong link between
the two prestigious club."
Mourinho, who guided Inter to a record treble of trophies this
season, will be presented as the new coach on Monday.
