Jose Mourinho has informed the Real Madrid board he intends to continue as coach next season.
El Mundo says Mourinho recently met with vice-president Jose Angel Sanchez to assure him that he intended to carry on, despite the interest of former club Chelsea.
Sanchez and his board are delighted and did not hesitate meeting Mou's request to upgrade the contracts of his backroom staff.
Aitor Karanka, Rui Faria, Silvino Louro and Jose Morais will all be tabled new deals at the end of the season.
