Jose Mourinho says Rafa Benitez’s wife is confused
Recently Benitez’s wife joked that her husband has always been tasked with the job of cleaning up the mess left by Mourinho and the current Chelsea manager didn’t take the comment too kindly.
Mourinho was manager at Real Madrid between 2010 and 2013, and left to return to Chelsea by mutual agreement after his “worst year” as a football tactician. If you think about it, of course you end up crossing paths.
The ex-Liverpool coach-who enjoyed a fierce rivalry with Mourinho during his time in the Premier League-is now in situ at Real Madrid.
Seara also provided an insight into the mind of one of the most dedicated managers in the game, who has managed many top level clubs including the likes of Valencia, Liverpool, Inter Milan, Chelsea, and Napoli. “There are only a few world-class clubs out there”.
Seara, a law professor from the northern region of Galicia, says her husband’s passion for the game remains unabated despite the hard circumstances of his time with Napoli. It was hilarious. He stood on the sidelines and shouted at them as if they were first division players, waving his arms about.
“Coming back midway through last season as I had to do and not play, then play was far more complicated”.
They criticised him at Liverpool for constantly tweaking his starting XI.
“The lady is confused”, Mourinho was quoted as saying by Mundo Deportivo.
Jese scored the first of Madrid’s goals in their 3-0 win over Inter Milan in a humid Guangzhou, China on Monday, as he brought down a Marcelo cross expertly with his right foot, before cutting inside a defender to rifle home an unstoppable left footed strike in the 29th minute.
Now, Benitez takes the reigns at Real Madrid with just two years separating the pair.
