Casillas: I Don't Want Mourinho at Real Madrid
The legend of Real Madrid and former Spanish goalkeeper Iker Casillas sparked controversy after his recent statements about the possibility of Portuguese coach José Mourinho returning to manage the royal club.
Casillas wrote on his official account on the "X" platform: "I have no problem with Mourinho, I see him as a professional and great coach, but I don't want him at Real Madrid."
He added: "I believe there are other coaches more qualified to train the club of my life. This is just a personal opinion, nothing more."
These statements bring back to the forefront the tense relationship between Casillas and Mourinho during their time at Real Madrid between 2010 and 2013, a period that witnessed many disputes within the locker room.
At that time, Mourinho accused Casillas of leaking team news and the starting lineup to the media, specifically to journalist Sara Carbonero, the goalkeeper's former wife, which caused a significant crisis within the club at the time.
