Mourinho chooses challenges rather than money! It s more to go to work than to go to work! Benfica makes a lot of money
2:15am, 2 October 2025【Football】
In today's football world, the Magic Bird Mourinho is the most special head coach and is no one to exist because he is the only Magic Bird who can lead the transfer of fans. Whether it is the passionate celebration on the sidelines or the witty comments at the press conference, he can always put himself in the forefront. Some fans said that he was "deathful", which made it difficult for the club to deal with, but some fans said that the 62-year-old man is a real man in football and he can't stand a trace of sand in his eyes. Why did the madman choose to join Miyamoto Fica twice has also become a question for everyone.
Recently, 62-year-old Mourinho said bluntly in an interview with Portuguese media: "If I stay at home and don't work, I will make more money than I am in Benfica." One sentence once again sparked a hot search. You should know that after leaving Fenerbahce, Mourinho still has a very generous termination contract! If he chooses to unemployment until June next year, he will receive up to 25 million euros in compensation. Nowadays, the salary of coaching Benfica not only fails to exceed this amount, but is even lower than most of his past contracts. These remarks seem to be ridiculous on the surface, but accurately reveal the real motivation for Mourinho's return this time: it is not money, but challenges. He was born for the position of football coach.
Retrospective of his experience in Türkiye not long ago, Mourinho's relationship with Fenerbahce is not satisfactory. The team failed to enter the Champions League and became the last straw that defeated the camel. The management chose to change coaches, and Mourinho left office in disgrace. But according to the terms of the contract, he received a huge compensation: 15 million euros were received in advance, and if he did not accept any new jobs before June next year, the compensation would accumulate to 25 million euros. This number is luxurious enough for even the top coach in football. In other words, if Mourinho did nothing, he could earn tens of millions a year by just lying down. However, the madman is obviously unwilling to waste his time at home. Soon, he returned to Lisbon, where he started more than 20 years ago, and returned to Benfica.
When Mourinho officially announced his return to Benfica, the media immediately threw out rumors of a "sky-high contract". Some people say that the total value of his two-year contract is close to £30 million and his annual salary is more than £14 million. Subsequently, Benfica President Rui Costa also broke the silence rarely. In an interview with CNN Portugal, he responded positively for the first time: "The statement about high salary is completely exaggerated. In fact, Mourinho's income in Benfica is about 3 million euros in the first year and 4 million euros in the second year. This contract is the lowest since he left Portugal." Compared with the previous annual salary of tens of million euros in Real Madrid, Manchester United, Tottenham and even Fenerbahce, the current figure is indeed a bargain price.
What is even more surprising is that Mourinho also accepted an extremely rare term of termination in his contract. According to regulations, if both parties decide to break up early, the compensation amount will be less than half of his annual salary. At the same time, within 10 days after the end of the last game of the season, both the club and Mourinho himself can unilaterally announce that he will not renew his contract.
This means that Benfica has little to bear long-term economic risks. For the Portuguese Super League, which has a poor financial situation, this contract is conscientious. Costa sighed: "Murinho fully understands the stage the club is in. He truly respects and understands the situation of the team." Come on, the 62-year-old Mourinho.
