Bernabéu Boos Mark Real Madrid’s Win With Mourinho in Advanced Talks

The hostile mood points to a deeper rift that a looming coaching decision could soon expose.

Overview

  • Real Madrid beat already relegated Oviedo 2-0 on Thursday at a subdued Bernabéu that booed Vinícius Júnior and Kylian Mbappé.
  • President Florentino Pérez argued with a supporter near the directors’ box as security removed protest banners that targeted him by name.
  • Multiple outlets, citing Fabrizio Romano, report José Mourinho’s return is in the final phase and still hinges on presidential sign‑off and the club’s election timetable.
  • Iker Casillas said Tuesday on X that he does not want Mourinho back, adding that other coaches are better suited to lead the club now.
  • The unrest follows two straight trophyless seasons, a midseason sacking of Xabi Alonso for interim Álvaro Arbeloa, and a training fight between Federico Valverde and Aurélien Tchouaméni that left Valverde with a head cut and led to reported fines.
