José Mourinho is set to lead his first training session in his second stint as Real Madrid's head coach on July 13th, Spanish newspaper "Marca" reported today.
However, "The Special One" won't be officially unveiled as the team's new coach until early next month. Real Madrid has yet to formally announce the Portuguese's appointment, but Benfica, Mourinho's most recent club, confirmed on Tuesday that he was departing and Marco Silva would take over.
Mourinho's return was closely linked to Florentino Pérez's re-election as president of the royal club, which was confirmed on Monday.
The publication also confirmed that José Mourinho's new contract with Real is for three years, mirroring his previous spell from 2010-2013, during which he secured one league title and one Copa del Rey.
The plan for the first training session on July 13th is based on it being the final week of the World Cup, meaning it's highly probable that Kylian Mbappé and Vinicius Júnior will not be present.
Mourinho himself arrived in Madrid on Tuesday and informed the squad about the "start of training."
