Real Madrid defender, Marc Cucurella, has claimed that manager José Mourinho is a misunderstood man.
Mourinho signed Cucurella from his former club Chelsea this summer, as he took over the LaLiga club for a second spell.
Cucurella, in an interview with COPE, opened up on working with the Portuguese coach.
“The real José Mourinho is very different from the public perception of Mourinho,” he said.
“He’s very close to us, he’s a very good person, he likes to talk to us and joke around with us.
“But of course, he’s the boss, and we’ll do whatever he says.”
