During his post-match interview, Mourinho was highly complimentary of Bale, praising him for his calm temperament, intelligence, and determination in the fight to recover from injury.

This interview was not without controversy, however, as Mourinho exclaimed: “When I have five minutes I am going to Safari to look at Madrid’s websites to see what they say.”

This lashing out at Madrid may stem from the tumultuous tenure that Bale endured while at Los Blancos. For much of his career in Spain, Bale took heat for his string of injuries as well as his perceived lack of commitment to Madrid.

The Welsh winger previously played for Tottenham Hotspur from 2007 until 2013, when he was lured to Real Madrid for a hefty price tag exceeding $111 million. On September 19 of this year, Bale returned to Tottenham Hotspur on a one-year loan, with the club paying approximately $30.80 million in wages and loan fees for the player.

Before arriving at Spurs, Jose Mourinho managed Real Madrid from July 2010 until June 2013. He has since returned to Chelsea for a second tenure and managed Manchester United.

Pochettino was on the hot seat for some time now, with Tottenham sitting at 14th place in the Premier League. The team won just one game in their last seven Premier League fixtures, while also suffering an embarrassing 7-2 loss to Bayern Munich in Champions League.

According to reports, Mourinho was Tottenham’s first choice as Pochettino’s replacement and the team didn’t consider other candidates. The 56-year-old Portuguese manager inked a deal through the 2022-23 season and will reportedly receive a salary of around $19 million.

“In Jose, we have one of the most successful managers in football,” – said Spurs chairman Daniel Levy. “He has a wealth of experience, can inspire teams and is a great tactician. He has won honors at every club he has coached. We believe he will bring energy and belief to the dressing room.”

Jose Mourinho was out of a job for almost a year, being fired by Manchester United midway through the 2018/19 season for bad results. He previously also coached Porto, Chelsea, Inter Milan, and Real Madrid.

Mourinho won a total of 25 trophies during his managerial career, including two UEFA Champions League trophies.
