Bro, what did I just catch now! José Mourinho, 'The Special One', returns to Real Madrid and DESTROYS everything that came before. First one out the door: Aurelien Tchouameni, the French midfielder they bought for 80 million from Monaco. Now the Spaniards are selling him for 90 million. Hey, that's 10 million profit, but wait till you see what The Boss does next.
Listen up: ESPN says Real is willing to accept 90 million for Tchouameni. The 26-year-old Frenchman played 195 games for Real, he was a key man. But Mourinho comes with his 4-2-3-1 system, no room for just anyone. That's football: you come, someone else leaves.
Manchester United is on alert. They got into the Champions League and now they're looking for a midfielder. Tchouameni is top of their list. If the transfer happens, the English pay 90 million and that's that. In England they have money, not like here where we sit and think whether to buy bread or gas.
Mourinho doesn't stop there. So far he's brought in four players: Denzel Dumfries, Marc Cucurella, Ibrahima Konate, and Bernardo Silva. That means he's already spent a ton of cash, but he still wants more. With 4-2-3-1, he needs guys who can run. Maybe he'll call my son Brian too, since he plays FIFA all day, doesn't care about school. I tell him: 'Son, if you got into Real, you'd get me out of debt.'
Real has money, bro. But also pressure. Mourinho comes with bossy vibes, like he did 13 years ago. If he doesn't win the Champions League, they'll kick him out. That's Madrid: one good year, two years in the stands. As Caragiale said: 'It can't be done, but it gets done.' At Real, it gets done fast.
We'll see if he throws in more cash. Maybe he'll even take my son Brian to play starter. Until then, I watch matches and dream. If I hit a winning bet, maybe I'll get myself an Audi, so I don't have to drive the 2008 BMW anymore.
