Barely announced as the new manager of Real Madrid, José Mourinho has already singled out several players destined to leave the club. According to Radio Marca, six names have made it onto the Portuguese coach's list of unwanted players.

José Mourinho is not officially in charge yet, but he's already started to clean house. Indeed, according to Radio Marca, the Special One has handed the Madrid board a blacklist of six players he doesn't plan to rely on next season:

1. Franco Mastantuono
2. Fran García
3. Raúl Asensio
4. Dani Ceballos
5. Eduardo Camavinga
6. Rodrygo

Some exits were already expected. Ceballos is heading to Ajax, García to the Premier League, and Mastantuono is likely to leave on loan. However, the cases of Camavinga and Rodrygo have landed like a bombshell. The Frenchman, long seen as untouchable, and the Brazilian, still recovering from a serious injury, are apparently no longer in the Portuguese manager’s plans.

Mourinho is already stamping his authority. This summer transfer window promises to be radical at the Casa Blanca, as a new era begins even before the new coach has put pen to paper.
