During a Monday morning press conference at Valdebebas at 10:00, Real Madrid manager José Mourinho commented on facing six media appearances within a single week during the opening month of his second managerial stint at the club. Speaking in a lighter tone, the Portuguese manager addressed journalists directly about the media schedule.

“I am tired of you, you are tired of me, but here we are, because it is our job. If you tell me next week of six we save one, I will bring something to snack on.”

Mourinho also made unprompted remarks regarding refereeing decisions. Following a 1-0 defeat against Real Betis at La Cartuja, he asked why a penalty taken by Kylian Mbappé was not retaken during his pre-match press conference ahead of Madrid's Champions League debut against Inter.

“Why was Mbappé's penalty not retaken? Why did they not call the referee to review it on the monitor? It is a bit strange.”

Before leaving for training, Mourinho noted that reporters did not ask him about penalties awarded to Barcelona and Atlético Madrid during the recent league matchday.
