Real Madrid boss Mourinho sets up spy network for Barcelona transfer dealings

Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho has built his own 'spy network' to stay on top of Barcelona's transfer moves, it has been revealed. Don Balon says Mourinho is using his closest agents, including Jorge Mendes, to keep up-to-speed on what Barca are doing in the summer transfer window.

It's claimed both Mourinho and Real president Florentino Perez have been pumping Mendes for information on Barcelona's actions across the globe.

Interestingly, when news broke that Barca were moving for Santos star Neymar, it was revealed only days later that Real Madrid vice-president Jose Angel Sanchez had made contact with Ronaldo to urge him to contact the player's agent Wagner Ribeiro about talks in Madrid.
