Thursday, June 25, 2026 - Football manager, Jose Mourinho has insisted that Real Madrid are the best club in the world.
The 63-year-old is set to return to the Santiago Bernabeu
this summer for a second stint, following an official announcement by the
club's board of directors appointing him on a three-year contract through June
2029. Mourinho has now ranked Madrid above eternal LaLiga rivals Barcelona.
“Real Madrid is the best club in the world. Barcelona is one
of the best after Real Madrid,” Mourinho said. He further doubled down when
analyzing the playing style and history of the two clubs.
“Barcelona is seen as the team that plays amazing style, the
team that scores a lot of goals. But this is a big contradiction.
“The team that scored the most goals in the history of
Spanish football was my Real Madrid team in 2011/12, with 121 goals and 100
points in one season.”
Mourinho's return comes at a time when Los Blancos are
looking to reconstruct their dominance after failing to win a major trophy over
the last two seasons.
Despite the recent lack of silverware on the pitch, the
club's global stature remains unmatched, with Forbes recently ranking Real
Madrid as the world's most valuable football club at $9.5 billion, ahead of
Barcelona at $7.5 billion.
