Former Manchester United midfielder Ander Herrera has expressed confidence that Jose Mourinho could turn around Real Madrid's fortunes, pointing to the Portuguese manager's successful first spell at the Santiago Bernabéu.

Herrera, who played under Mourinho at Old Trafford, believes the 61-year-old's previous experience in Madrid — where he won La Liga, the Copa del Rey, and the Supercopa de España between 2010 and 2013 — proves he can deliver success again.

The comments come amid ongoing speculation about Real Madrid's managerial future, with the club currently navigating a transitional period.
