Real Madrid head coach Jose Mourinho has responded to comments made by Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta after the Spaniard extended his contract with the London club.

Mourinho said such an arrangement would not happen at Real Madrid, stating: “That would be impossible at Real Madrid.”

Arteta has been in charge of Arsenal since 2019. Last season, the Gunners won the Premier League title for the first time since 2004, ending a 21-year wait for the championship.
