‘Another coach will take over’: Grigoryan outlines Mourinho’s Real Madrid task

Jose Mourinho’s role at Real Madrid is viewed as a temporary one, with his main responsibility being to bring unity to a divided squad, according to former Russian club manager Alexander Grigoryan.

Grigoryan believes the Portuguese coach has been brought in to address the lack of cohesion within the Madrid side before another manager takes charge.

“The team is split,” Grigoryan said, identifying that disunity as the central issue behind Real Madrid’s failure to produce results.

Real Madrid are third in La Liga with 21 points under Mourinho, six points behind leaders Barcelona.
