Real defender Marc Cucurella has spoken about head coach Jose Mourinho’s relationship with the players. The Spanish footballer said the Portuguese coach is not as distant and strict as he may appear from the outside.
“The real Jose Mourinho is completely different from the person people imagine from the outside. He is very close to the players, enjoys communicating with them and is always joking in the dressing room,” Cucurella said, according to Marca.
He also stressed that Mourinho is the head coach: “We have the utmost respect for him and carry out all his tactical instructions without question.”
