Watch Jose Mourinho deliver first interview after Real Madrid presentation

Jose Mourinho may have been reappointed as Real Madrid manager in mid-June, but he has finally been presented to the media.
The 'Special One' returned to the Bernabéu having led the club for three years between 2010 and 2013, when he won two major trophies but failed to deliver the Champions League.
Mourinho takes over from Álvaro Arbeloa, who held the position of caretaker manager following the exit of Xabi Alonso in mid-January.
Real kick off their La Liga season against Espanyol on Saturday, and the expectations will be for the 63-year-old to win major trophies.

Following his official presentation as Real Madrid manager, the 'Special One' shared his first message to all the Madridistas.
"Easy, I'm one of you," said Mourinho.
"And not just today, since I arrived in 2010 and after I left in 2013. Always with you.
"I have an amazing memory of Wembley when we beat Borussia in the Champions League final. The affection that was shown to me, I really am one of you."
Real Madrid share Mourinho presentation images
The Real Madrid boardroom hosted Mourinho today as he was presented as the club's new manager, returning after 13 years.
Mourinho was welcomed by club president Florentino Pérez and signed the contract that will keep him at the club until the summer of 2029.
The Portuguese received a stadium replica, a watch and a jersey with his name on it and can be seen holding up that jersey below.
Real then published several more photos on social media with Mourinho pictured signing his contract.
The 63-year-old can be seen alongside honorary president José Martínez Pirri, who also attended the event.
Perhaps the most striking and significant image is of Mourinho standing in front of the glut of Champions League trophies the club have won over the years.
It would be safe to assume that the goal for the former Chelsea manager is to lift that trophy for a third time, having done so with FC Porto and Inter Milan.
