Real Madrid faced a challenging season, with two different managers failing to maintain control of the locker room and deliver desired results. The campaign started under the leadership of Xabi Alonso, who was dismissed soon after a Supercopa de España defeat against FC Barcelona.
Alvaro Arbeloa replaced him, with opportunities to claim three trophies, yet he came away empty-handed. As a result, Florentino Perez made a decisive move, bringing a seasoned figure back to the club.
That figure turned out to be Jose Mourinho, who is returning to the Bernabeu after 13 years to complete the work he began over a decade ago. El Chiringuito TV has revealed details of the coaching staff under his leadership.
The selection of Mourinho’s team members comes as little surprise, as he has chosen trusted individuals who have been alongside him for many years, such as Joao Tralho, Antonio Dias, and Nuno Santos. However, what is unexpected is Sami Khedira’s inclusion on the coaching staff as assistant coach.
The former German midfielder spent three years under Mourinho’s management from 2010 to 2013, during which Mourinho brought him to Real Madrid. Under “The Special One,” Khedira played 126 matches, scoring 8 goals and providing 12 assists. He was a key figure in Los Blancos’ lineup during that time.
