Real call news conference amid reports of Valdano exit
Posted Thursday, May 26, 2011 by YAHOO Sport
MADRID, May 25 (Reuters) - Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has called a news conference for 1900 GMT on Wednesday after local media reports said director general Jorge Valdano was set to leave the club.
Valdano’s position has been in doubt since his relationship with Real coach Jose Mourinho broke down.
El Pais daily and other media reported Mourinho had asked Perez to oust Valdano and the decision had been approved at a board meeting earlier on Wednesday.
The move will be seen as a victory for Mourinho, who joined from Inter Milan at the end of last season, as he seeks to cement his influence within the La Liga club.
