Overview
- José Mourinho was photographed in Berlin at the DFB‑Pokal final and was reported to have held contacts there as media continue to link him with a return to Real Madrid.
- German reports say Mourinho met VfB Stuttgart sporting director Fabian Wohlgemuth during the cup weekend and that the meetings were facilitated by super-agent Jorge Mendes’s agency GestiFute.
- Multiple outlets have put Bayern winger Michael Olise on Real Madrid’s radar as a potential target, citing his standout season of 22 goals and 30 assists in 51 matches.
- Bayern figures pushed back strongly on transfer talk, with honorary president Uli Hoeneß saying Olise is "not for sale" and sporting director Max Eberl stressing the club is not considering a sale and that Olise is contracted until 2029.
- If Mourinho does take the Real job, his early scouting signals plans for a quick squad reset to restore dressing‑room order, but Bayern’s public refusal and Olise’s long contract make any immediate transfer difficult.
