Jose Mourinho, former manager of Real Madrid, has openly expressed his desire for the club to win the transfer race for a talented young player, Nico Williams. In a recent press conference, Mourinho stated that he hopes Williams ends up at Real Madrid instead of other potential suitors like Arsenal or Chelsea.
Williams, who caught the attention of top European clubs after his impressive performance in Spain's European Championship victory last summer, has not yet made a name for himself at his current club, Athletic Bilbao. However, his potential was on full display during the Euros, where he scored a crucial goal in the final and was named player of the match.
Mourinho, who spent three successful years at Real Madrid, believes that Williams has what it takes to succeed at the club and hopes that he will join their ranks. When asked about Williams, Mourinho couldn't help but praise the young player, calling him "wonderful" and "fantastic." He even went on to say that he personally prefers Williams over another highly-touted prospect, Lamine Yamal.
Despite interest from other clubs, Williams decided to stay at Bilbao last summer, but with the transfer window approaching, Arsenal and Chelsea may reignite their pursuit of the 22-year-old. However, Mourinho remains hopeful that Real Madrid will be the ones to secure his signature.
Speaking about his former club, Mourinho expressed his admiration for Real Madrid and their current coach, Carlo Ancelotti. He also shared his thoughts on potential coaching options for the club in the future, mentioning names like Xabi Alonso, Raúl, and Arbeloa. However, he believes that the club's president, Florentino Perez, will make the right decision when the time comes.
As for his current team, Fenerbahce, Mourinho remains focused on their success in the Turkish league and the Europa League. Despite sitting in second place in the league and 15th in the Europa League, Mourinho is confident in their abilities and believes that victories will come in due time.
