Real Madrid manager Mourinho has reportedly ruled out January departures for three first-team players who have been sidelined this season, according to a report from Madrid Universal published on November 10, 2026.
The Portuguese coach is said to be keen on retaining the trio despite their limited playing time, believing they could still contribute during the second half of the campaign.
No specific names were disclosed in the report, but the stance suggests Mourinho values squad depth as Real Madrid navigate a congested fixture schedule.
