Mourinho wants Samuel Eto’o back

Real Madrid head coach  Mourinho has divulged his intention to the chiefs of Real Madrid to consider re-signing Inter Milan forward , Samuel Eto’o.

Mourinho asked president Florentino Perez about signing Eto’o over the summer, but the deal was abortive .

However, now with Inter struggling, Mourinho has discussed with Perez trying for Eto’o next month. The intention is to wait until mid-January for results on Gonzalo Higuain’s back injury before making a move for the Cameroon superstar.

Even with Eto’o Cup-tied from the Champions League, Mourinho would welcome him to Madrid and has already made contact to alert his former Inter star to his thinking.

Despite his past with Barcelona and his taunts aimed at Real during his time at the Nou Camp, Eto’o would love the chance to be reunited with Mourinho.
