Mourinho once coached Ronaldo. |
According to Goal , "The Special One" is considered the leading candidate for the position of head coach of the Portuguese national team in the near future, should coach Roberto Martinez fail at the 2026 World Cup.
Currently, Mourinho manages Benfica after returning to Portugal in September. However, the team's performance this season has not been very convincing, as they are 9 points behind in the title race, making it highly likely that Mourinho will have another trophyless season.
The last time "The Special One" won a major title was in 2022, with the Europa Conference League trophy with AS Roma.
Mourinho has been contacted numerous times to manage the Portuguese national team but has always declined. However, the opportunity remains open for him in the near future. His experience and composure in major tournaments are a significant advantage.
Given that Ronaldo is likely to play for at least another two years, the possibility of CR7 becoming Mourinho's pupil once again is entirely plausible. Previously, the two worked together at Real Madrid, but didn't achieve the expected success.
Currently, Ronaldo and his teammates are looking forward to the 2026 World Cup, where Portugal is in the same group as Colombia, Uzbekistan, and the winner of the intercontinental play-off between Jamaica, New Caledonia, and the Republic of Congo.
