Just hours before hosting Real Madrid, the Benfica president answered two questions from Spain’s Chiringuito, ultimately confirming that Mourinho will remain in charge for the 2026/27 season.
"Yes, he will remain," Rui Costa replied when asked if Mourinho would stay "next year."
In a hurried manner, the Benfica president also said he expects a tough match this Tuesday against Real Madrid.
It’s worth noting that in recent days, the Spanish press has been reporting rumours about a possible return of the so-called 'Special One' to the Santiago Bernabeu.
