Ex-Real Madrid Forward Tote Questions Mourinho Return and Club’s Transfer Strategy

Former Real Madrid forward Tote has criticised the club’s summer transfer strategy and José Mourinho’s reported return as manager. Speaking on Iker Casillas’ podcast, Tote said Real Madrid made a major mistake by replacing the creativity of Luka Modrić and Toni Kroos with more physical players. He argued that the team has lost its traditional footballing identity and lacks the quality to dominate Europe. Tote also questioned whether Mourinho still has the energy and tactical edge that defined his first spell at the club. He said the current squad is not comparable to the team Mourinho managed two decades ago.
