Mourinho Returns to Stamford Bridge as Benfica Manager

News summary

José Mourinho returned to Stamford Bridge as Benfica’s manager for a high‑profile Champions League visit and was greeted by sustained chants and theatrical exchanges that underscored his enduring pull at Chelsea. Supporters repeatedly sought his acknowledgement and reflected nostalgically on the combative identity he once instilled at the club. Critics, however, argued that his recent teams have lacked the remorseless, underdog spirit and Champions League edge that defined his greatest sides, raising questions about his current tactical effectiveness. Off the pitch, later reports describe Mourinho as financially successful with media estimates placing his net worth around £80–100 million, and note he has made London his family base and holds substantial property assets. The coverage highlighted both the sentimental importance of the homecoming and broader doubts about his contemporary managerial bite.
