Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho wins October Coach of the Month award

Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho wins October Coach of the Month award After their trophyless last two seasons, Real Madrid decided to bet on the experienced hand of Jose Mourinho to lead their next sporting project. The Portuguese coach took charge of the Merengue team during the last summer, and got a significantly reinforced team to ensure Los Blancos return to winning ways this season. The new coach naturally faced some difficult moments early in his second stint with Real Madrid. His team was barely able to win against the likes of Espanyol, Elche, and Inter Milan, and also suffered defeats against Real Betis and Atletico Madrid. However, the Merengues have significantly improved their form over the last few weeks. In fact, the win over Valencia meant they have won all of their last eight games, a streak they had not been able to reach since 2022. The month of October was particularly good for Mourinho. His Real Madrid team did not drop even a single point, beating the likes of Villarreal, Sevilla, and even a very in-form FC Barcelona. The El Clasico win came at the Spotify Camp Nou, thus making it a highly memorable night for Los Blancos and their fans. These good results obtained by the Portuguese coach have now also been recognized by La Liga, as MARCA reports that he was named as the La Liga Coach of the Month for October. He won this award ahead of the Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone and the Real Sociedad manager Pellegrino Matarazzo. This is only the first time Jose Mourinho has won this award since his return to Real Madrid, but with the way he has made this team click, it would not really be surprising to see him win this award a couple of times again before the season ends. Hopefully, his good work will also be rewarded by some big trophies at the end of the season.
