# Mourinho wins Manager of the Month after perfect October

Real Madrid coach José Mourinho has been named La Liga Manager of the Month for October.

The Portuguese manager won the award after Madrid enjoyed a perfect month with a 100 per cent win record, including their 2-1 victory in El Clásico against FC Barcelona.

La Liga disclosed this on its X account on Monday.

“Real Madrid’s coach is the Coach of the Month for October in #LALIGAEASPORTS,” the post read.

The Portuguese received the recognition after guiding Madrid through a perfect month in the Spanish top flight, winning all three of their league fixtures.

Madrid beat Villarreal 1-0, Sevilla 4-1 and Barcelona 2-1, emerging victorious over their arch-rivals in their first encounter this season.

Los Blancos have suffered only two defeats so far this season, losing 1-0 at Real Betis and 2-1 against Atletico Madrid in the Madrid derby.

Madrid currently sit second in the table, three points behind leaders Barcelona.

Mourinho has enjoyed an impressive return to Madrid this season, with his side hitting a strong run of form in recent weeks and winning the award after returning to the Bernabeu for a second stint in his illustrious managerial career.

The 63-year-old charismatic and outspoken manager previously coached Madrid from 2010 to 2013, winning La Liga, the Copa del Rey and the Spanish Super Cup.

Mourinho succeeds Barcelona manager Hansi Flick, who won the September award after guiding the Catalan side through an impressive run of results.
